Building an "Association of Trans-Korean Peninsula Nations" and China's Role toward the RPG Approach / Zhu, Qin; Fang, Xiuyu   Journal Article
Zhu, Qin Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Summary/Abstract Tensions flared for a time after North Korea’s fifth and sixth nuclear tests as well as THAAD’s entry into South Korea. This paper extends the view that the root cause of these issues is the lack of regional public goods (RPGs) on the Korean Peninsula, and its insufficiency results from three major conflicts in the politico–economic situation of the Peninsula. In order to resolve the issues and maintain lasting peace, three specific aspects, i.e., in diplomacy, security and economy, are to be addressed in carrying out the long-term mission of supplying RPGs to the Peninsula. For effective operation and comprehensive management of the RPGs provision, an integration platform with powerful commitments is called for, i.e., “Association of Trans-Korean Peninsula Nations” (ATKPN) co-established by China, the United States, and the two Koreas. Apart from the dilemma commonly identified in the delivery of RPGs, the ATKPN also faces dilemmas specifically from the Northeast Asian order. To overcome the ATKPN’s obstacles, concerted efforts are needed to promote the institutionalization of Sino–U.S. “new type of great power relations,” to transform the function of the alliance system, and to cultivate the awareness of “common external threats.”

China's caution on Afghanistan-Pakistan / Small, Andrew   Journal Article
Small, Andrew Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract The ongoing crisis in Afghanistan and Pakistan looks like a prime candidate for closer cooperation between the United States and China. There are various broadly shared interests in combating terrorism, containing rising extremism, and supporting the stability of both states. With its extensive influence in Pakistan and substantial economic capacity, Beijing has important assets to bring to the table. In practice, however, efforts to achieve convergence have proved frustrating. Differences run deep over how to address the extremist threat and the broader geopolitics of the region. And as is true of its foreign policy elsewhere, China pursues a relatively narrow conception of its interests in Afghanistan and Pakistan, rather than supporting a more widely shared set of goals.

Summary/Abstract On September 3, 2017, North Korea conducted its sixth nuclear test, that of a hydrogen bomb, which can be mounted on an intercontinental ballistic missile. Pyongyang's statements that it has completed the development of nuclear weapons have put an end to a period of uncertainty, when the great powers thought that the North Korean nuclear issue could simply be wished away.

North Korean nuclear issue and the United Nations / Kim, Doug J   Journal Article
Kim, Doug J Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2011.
Summary/Abstract The threat from North Korea is likely to continue with the apparent absence of any intent or interest in giving up its nuclear ambitions in the near future. North Korean provocations are likely to feature conventional weapons backed up by Pyongyang's nuclear arsenal to deter any Korean and U.S. response against the North. Overall, there is a possibility of further military challenges from the North and a more unstable situation on the Korean peninsula, especially during the succession period apparently underway in North Korea. Therefore, resolving the North Korean nuclear issue through the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) could help the resumption of the Six-Party Talks (6PT). However, the complex and intermingled goals of the 6PT are further limited by the new uranium enrichment program. During the present deadlock in these talks, Korea should support the activities of the UNSC and North Korea Sanctions Committee, strongly encourage the resumption of the 6PT, and make all diplomatic efforts to focus international pressure on Pyongyang aimed at making it cease disrupting regional security or furthering its nuclear ambitions. The best policy towards North Korea is a peaceful solution of the nuclear crisis through the UNSC together with the 6PT.

US - North Korean relations: classification based on policy decision and their effect on the Korean Peninsula / Lee, Seung Hyun   Journal Article
Lee, Seung Hyun Journal Article
0 Rating(s) & 0 Review(s)
Publication 2010.
Summary/Abstract The relationship between America and North Korea is wavering between confrontation and communication depending on the policy choices of President Obama and Kim Jong Il. To have a realistic outlook upon the situation, it would be of significant value to categorize the relationship and to determine the South Korean government's countermeasures based on these categories. Based on the U. S.-North Korea relationship, four categories can be extracted. Soft-line and hard-line policies are possible political choices, and scenarios will be put forward based on a mixture of the two. South Korea's response to each category is reviewed in this paper.
