Summary/Abstract |
This study seeks to explain the implications of the US's withdrawal from the Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations, resulting in the weakening of the Palestinian Authority, and calls for abrogating the Oslo Accords. Causes of the failure of the Accords, such as the Palestinians' inability to act on Oslo's projected date of 1990 for statehood, or to stand up to the Clinton Parameters for peace, or to stem the tide of the Jewish settlement movement, or to capitalize on pronouncements of the International Criminal Court on the Wall and the settlements, are examined. International stalemate resulting from Israel's freezing of the Quartet's Roadmap leading to Israel's rebranding itself as a Jewish state hammered the last nail in the coffin of the two-state solution. The article concludes with an assessment of Israeli reaction to the one-state solution.

Summary/Abstract |
Despite the Hanoi Summit between Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un, there has
been no positive sign that the North Korea nuclear problem is being resolved. To
advance the denuclearization negotiations, a new approach to denuclearization
must be considered, which needs to meet two objectives simultaneously: to relieve
North Korea’s concerns about its regime change and to practically eliminate its
nuclear capability to fabricate additional nuclear weapons and refurbish existing
nuclear weapons. The new approach should consider infrastructures that would
be indispensable in implementing North Korea’s denuclearization processes and
stopping any attempt to proliferate North Korea’s nuclear materials and technologies
amid denuclearization. Accordingly, this paper proposes a new roadmap whose
key concept is to first disable and, then, gradually but completely dismantle the
lynchpin nuclear facilities within 10 years. Here, lynchpin facilities are defined as
key facilities that are directly related to the production of nuclear materials or other
materials used when fabricating and refurbishing the key components of nuclear
weapons or which would have a fatal impact on maintaining North Korea’s nuclear
weapon program. Additionally, this roadmap addresses corresponding measures
for denuclearization activities. This roadmap consists of three sub-periods: the
lynchpin disablement period, verification and dismantling period, and manifest
threat removal period. This paper also identifies and incorporates into the roadmap
the supporting infrastructure and possible corresponding measures to accompany
the denuclearization steps.

Summary/Abstract |
A watershed moment for nuclear security was reached when global leaders from more than 50 countries including India and other organisations met successively over six years (2010–2016) to develop an effective and sustainable plan for global nuclear security. At the end of six years, much has been accomplished to improve and upgrade nuclear security in several countries. Despite this perseverance, threats to nuclear security still remain undiminished, primarily because wrong people nursing a malicious agenda desire nuclear and radiological materials.
