A Turning Point with North Korea? Regional Perspectives on the US-NKorea Summit | 6/13/18
With the June 12 summit in Singapore between the United States and North Korea now back on, the region could be approaching a turning point in its relations with North Korea. If Kim Jong-un makes a credible pledge to denuclearize, what does that mean for North Korea’s relations with the United States? How does denuclearization change North Korea’s relationship with South Korea, Japan, Russia, and China? What would economic engagement with North Korea look like?
Please join KEI and Sasakawa USA for a discussion of the prospective U.S.-North Korea summit and whether it can be a turning point for relations with North Korea.
