That book and, presumably, the one which you are writing on (. S. relations with Pakistan should be read in con/unction with this interview. 0et me then start with the usual ,uestions about your background - where you were born and your education. I would also like to know how you became interested and involved in the foreign affairs field. ,UG: I was born in England on August .., .9I.. My father had come there from Austria in the late .920's. He was a stockbroker and shifted from London to New York in .9I2. In .9II my mother crossed the Atlantic to the United States with a little baby--me. So I arrived in New York City and the US in .9II. As a kid, even when I was eight or nine years old, I had already become a news 2freak.2 I was always interested in what was happening in the world, reading newspapers and listening to the radio. I remember the .940 Republican Party convention and listening to 4 the proceedings on the radio. I was then nine years old and was fascinated by it. Then the United States entered 3orld 3ar II in .94., and I followed what was happening throughout the world. I knew that I wanted to be involved in some way in news events-- though not necessarily in foreign affairs. This interest continued. I went to high school in Riverdale, in New York. There were a lot of foreign students there. My father's relatives had come over as refugees from Austria after Hitler took over in .9I8. So I was always around people who were interested in international affairs. I debated in my own mind whether I should get involved in international affairs, domestic politics, or teach history, which was my major. I didn't really resolve this question while I was in college at Lafayette in Pennsylvania. 3hen I graduated in .902, I sent off three different sets of graduate school applications--one for international affairs, one for law schools, and one for further study of history. Then I went into the U. S. Army, as one did in those days. That eFperience really tipped me toward the Foreign Service. For me, personally, the US Army was a good eFperience. I started in the Infantry and ended up in Intelligence. I had been in the ROTC JReserve Officers Training CorpsK, so I was lucky and wasn't a private, but a Second Lieutenant, which made a hell of a difference. Until I joined the Army, I was very much an insulated New Yorker. The Middle 3est was New Bersey, and the Far 3est was Ohio. 3ashington, DC was the Deep South. My universe was pretty circumscribed. The Army miFed you up with people from all over the country and from different sorts of backgrounds. It was good for me. Bust before entering on active duty in the summer of .902, I took the written Foreign Service eFam. I wasn't sure I wanted to join the Service, but felt there was no harm in trying the eFam. A government professor at college, Eugene Parker Chase had worked in the State Department on United Nations affairs and urged me to try. Then I remember an appealing recruiter from the State Department coming around and making the Foreign Service sound alive. In those days, the eFam was a three and a half day ordeal. There were three days of essay questions--three hours in the morning and three hours in the afternoon and then a half day on foreign language. I took the test in the Federal Building in Atlanta, 5A, as I was going to enter the Army in nearby Fort Benning. It was August and very hot. There was no air conditioning. I really suffered as I was not used to Southern style heat. I think that just getting through the ordeal was a major achievement. I can still remember sweat pouring down my arms as I took the eFam. The eFam was given in one of those old schoolrooms, where you shared a combination wooden desk and bench with someone else. There were, maybe, 20 or 20 persons. Some of them dropped out by the time the ordeal was over. It was a pretty rigorous affair, consisting of history, economics and English writing sections. I remember 2boning up2 on economics. The foreign language part was not so difficult. It just involved reading comprehension. I passed the eFam, somewhat to my surprise. 5 As I said, I started off in Ft. Benning J5AK. I was there for three months for basic training. Then I was transferred to California to Camp Roberts as an instructor in the 1th Armored Division. It was also a basic training camp. From there I went to Ft. Riley, ,S, in Banuary or February of .90I where I enrolled in the Intelligence School and was trained as a prisoner of war interrogator. I think that I was on leave in the summer of .90I, before going to ,orea when I came to 3ashington to take the Foreign Service oral eFam. In those days everything was done in 3ashington, and you had to travel there at your own eFpense. That was not too difficult from New York. However, I didn't pass the oral eFam. You either received a pass, a fail, or a 2try again.2 I got the latter. My main recollection of that test was that 3alter McConaughy, later Ambassador in Pakistan and Assistant Secretary for the Far East, was one of the eFaminers. It was given in one of the apartment buildings near the 2Old New State2 building where the State Department used to have offices. Then I went overseas to ,orea, and that really 2tipped me2 towards the Foreign Service, because I discovered new worlds in Bapan and ,orea. I had the opportunity to travel around ,orea a lot because I was in an 2odd ball2 unit--20 or 20 people in a 2prisoner of war2 interrogation platoon. There were four or five officers. A captain, who had more eFperience, was the commanding officer of the platoon. There were three or four second or first lieutenants, like myself, who were in their early 20's. The enlisted men were mostly Bapanese or Chinese Americans. I was very lucky.

    DEFENSE WHITE PAPER Message from the Minister of National Defense The year 2010 marked the 60th anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean War. Since the end of the war, the Republic of Korea has made such great strides and its economy now ranks among the 10-plus largest economies in the world. Out of the ashes of the war, it has risen from an aid recipient to a donor nation. Korea’s economic miracle rests on the strength and commitment of the ROK military. However, the threat of war and persistent security concerns remain undiminished on the Korean Peninsula. North Korea is threatening peace with its recent surprise attack against the ROK Ship CheonanDQGLWV¿ULQJRIDUWLOOHU\DW<HRQS\HRQJ Island. The series of illegitimate armed provocations by the North have left a fragile peace on the Korean Peninsula. Transnational and non-military threats coupled with potential conflicts among Northeast Asian countries add another element that further jeopardizes the Korean Peninsula’s security. To handle security threats, the ROK military has instituted its Defense Vision to foster an ‘Advanced Elite Military,’ which will realize the said Vision. As part of the efforts, the ROK military complemented the Defense Reform Basic Plan and has UHYDPSHGLWVZHDSRQSURFXUHPHQWDQGDFTXLVLWLRQV\VWHP,QDGGLWLRQLWKDVUHYDPSHGWKHHGXFDWLRQDOV\VWHPIRURI¿FHUVZKLOH strengthening the current training system by extending the basic training period and by taking other measures. The military has also endeavored to invigorate the defense industry as an exporter so the defense economy may develop as a new growth engine for the entire Korean economy. To reduce any possible inconveniences that Koreans may experience, the military has reformed its defense rules and regulations to ease the standards necessary to designate a Military Installation Protection Zone.

Master‟s Thesis in East Asian Culture and History At the Department of Culture Studies and Oriental Languages, Faculty of Humanities UNIVERSITETET I OSLO June 2017 © Jinha Sim 2017 Analysis on Media Coverage of Kim Jong-Un in the Norwegian newspapers, Aftenposten: After emergence of Kim Jong-un in the North Korea from Sep 2010 to Des 2016 http://www.duo.uio.no/ Print: Reprosentralen, University of Oslo II Abstract The Propaganda Model claimed that the media collaborating the propaganda of state foreign policies, created manipulated public consents. In this thesis, I tried to find out whether or nor the Propaganda Model can apply to a country which has no direct national interest, so relatively neutral like in Norway. I analyzed 289 news articles in Aftenposten, Norway‟s biggest newspaper, with the searching word „Kim Jong-un‟ from Sep 2010 to Dec 2016. I focused to code news sources, the third filter in the Propaganda Model, in news articles and found out that the reliance on the dominant Western media and quotation from elites (i.e. governmental officers and experts) in on the dominant Western media in favor of South Korea was high in Aftenposten. In types of sources, the government related sources from the US, the UK, South Korea and Japan was 68 per cent, in contrary China and North Korea was only 2 per cent. When it comes to sorting out frequency of direct quotations, North Korea was merely 4.8 per cent as same as China while the US were made up the biggest 31.1 per cent.

  • Dynamics of USA-Pakistan Relations in the Post 9/11 Period: Hurdles and Future Prospects
    International Journal of Humanities and Social Science Vol. 2 No. 11; June 2012 Dynamics of USA-Pakistan Relations in the Post 9/11 Period: Hurdles and Future Prospects Shahnaz Akhtar PhD Research Scholar Department of Political Science University of Peshawar Pakistan Abstract Pakistan-USA relations hold greater importance. Since independence of Pakistan, USA and Pakistan have been cooperating with each other not only in the economic field but also politically, socially and diplomatically. USA has always assisted Pakistan in all these fields and has been one of the key allies in providing funds and support. There have been times of mistrust and suspicions as well but while analyzing the overall scenario one can clearly asses that Pakistan’ relationship with USA has been one of the significant features of Pakistan’s foreign policy. This study assesses the importance of this relationship and the hurdles which obstruct cooperation and progress in the Pakistan-USA relationship. Furthermore the dynamics of their relationship after 9/11 with prospects of good will and cooperation in future also form part of this study. Key words: USA –Pakistan relations, terrorism, 9/11, Interests, Islamic militancy 1. Introduction A democratic and stable Pakistan is vital to US interests. After 9/11 two states came closer to each other because of both countries joined efforts against war on terrorism. Pakistan has been praised for its cooperation to counter terrorism although Pakistan is burning in fire of domestic terrorism. Since history there are many ups and downs in Pakistan-USA relations, but Pakistan joined hands with US in terrorism war despite of severe public protest in Pakistan against this decision.
