Extractions: Sun Tzu At the conclusion of the six-party talks in Beijing last August, North Korea announced that there was no reason for further negotiations and that its only option was to continue its nuclear weapons development program. The Beijing Summit was the first multilateral diplomatic effort aimed at heading off a nuclear crisis that became apparent in October 2002 when North Korea acknowledged restarting its nuclear program in violation of the 1994 Agreed Framework. In exchange for freezing the nuclear program, North Korea wants energy assistance, an end to sanctions, and security assurances from the United States through a nonaggression treaty. The Bush administration regards these demands as "blackmail" and is unwilling to make concessions unless North Korea first dismantles its nuclear program.

States like these [North Korea, Iran, and Iraq], and their terrorist allies, constitute an axis of evil, arming to threaten the peace of the world. By seeking weapons of mass destruction, these regimes pose a grave and growing danger. They could provide these arms to terrorists, giving them the means to match their hatred. They could attack our allies or attempt to blackmail the United States. In any of these cases, the price of indifference would be catastrophic.

http://www.heritage.org/Research/AsiaandthePacific/em875.cfm

Extractions: Executive Memorandum #875 The talks between the United States and North Korea in Beijing ended abruptly last week after North Korean officials declared that North Korea possesses a nuclear arsenal. As the Bush Administration continues to formulate a peaceful resolution to the nuclear standoff with North Korea, it should keep in mind that its principled policy of refusing to succumb to blackmail and pursuing a multilateral approach has been, and will continue to be, the best course of action. Although North Korea's admission seemed shocking, in reality it only confirmed what the international community has long suspected: The North Korean regime has flagrantly violated four international agreements and developed nuclear weapons. While these initial meetings did not produce any tangible results, the United States should view them as the first step in a process of aligning the interests of regional players to denuclearize North Korea peacefully. The Bush Administration should not rule out the possibility of future talks with North Korea, as long as they are continued within a multilateral setting and the goals are well coordinated among the allies. Future talks should test whether or not Pyongyang is sincerely willing to dismantle its nuclear weapons program, recognizing that if it does so, assistance from the international community will follow. The United States should also continue to internationalize the problem by engaging the United Nations, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), China, and Russia.

Extractions: The 50th anniversary of the North Korean invasion of the South arrives like Act II of the most dramatic fortnight in recent Korean history. First we were treated to the astonishing sight of the leaders of the two Koreas clasping hands at the "historic" summit in Pyongyang. Then, from the more distant past, came a sobering reminder: these two "halves" of a divided peninsula fought one of the bloodiest wars in Asian historyand they still haven't signed a peace treaty. Moreover, their armies remain locked in a face-off, nearly where they were when an overwhelming North Korean force roared across the 38th parallel on June 25, 1950, en route to the capture of Seoul four days later.

Extractions: Institute for Defense Analyses Introduction I am delighted to be a part of this conference, held in my hometown of Seoul. And as a kind of informal advisor on Northeast Asian affairs to the Asia Society, I am happy to support its work. My delight is somewhat tempered by the realization that I must talk about North Korea, which always seems to be associated with trouble, at least insofar as the United States is concerned. The recent train accident at Yongchon is but another reminder that North Korean officialdom remains committed above all to protecting its interests and in the service of that goal prefers to keep what happens inside its borders as secret as possible. That said, here are some of my personal thoughts about the impact of North Korea on South Korea and the region. Near-Term Prospects for US-DPRK Relations weapons program. Such an offer would not have played well in Washington in 1994, and ten years later it is even less acceptable. For want of a way out of this apparently irresolvable dilemma, both sides are playing for time, probably at least until after the US elections in November.

Extractions: Jan. 22, 2004 North Korea's Yongbyon nuclear reactor from a satellite photo (Photo: Space Imaging/AFP-Getty Images). The Jan. 8 unofficial U.S. visit to the empty holding ponds at the restarted Yongbyon nuclear site, a strangely obvious facility for a country that maintains a most of its strategic assets deep underground, yielded little to sway opinion. For those who believe in the possibility of reconciliation and negotiation with the North Korean leadership, the Yongbyon facility represents tangibility and verifiability. For the rest, it symbolizes contradiction: a facade designed to obfuscate and divide. But while Yongbyon is a fog, the words of North Korean Deputy Foreign Minister Kim Gye-gwan are more illuminating. Charles Jack Pritchard, a former U.S. State Department official and a member of the U.S. team, told reporters that Kim had warned him that time is not on the U.S. side. Kim may well be right: There is a strong case to be made that time is the United States fatal weakness in its dealings with North Korea. Article Continues Advertiser Links Links open in new window.

The timing of your conference is especially well judged in light of the forthcoming inauguration of President-elect Roh Moo-hyun, in less than two weeks ( on 25 February I met President-elect Noh's special envoy, Chong Dong-young, at the World Economic Forum in Davos three weeks ago, and we discussed a number of issues of common interest at length. I look forward to continuing the warm and productive relations Australia has enjoyed with President-elect Noh's predecessors across a broad range of issues of mutual interest and concern. Today our relationship encompasses trade, investment, and our economies, as well as the security and stability of the region. Since 1997, the South Korean economy has made a remarkable recovery backed up by solid corporate sector reform.

http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/asia/northkorea/timeline.html

Extractions: The name Korea originates from the Koryo dynasty, one of the oldest known kingdoms to rule the peninsula from the 10th to the 14th century AD. The Koryo dynasty was succeeded by the Choson dynasty around the 14th century. The word "Choson," which translates to "Land of the Morning Calm," comes the legend of the god-like warrior, Tangun, who is said to have founded Korea around 2000 BC. Towards the end of the Choson dynasty, Korea struggled to defend itself from regional powers Japan and Russia, and Western nations, including the U.S., France and the United Kingdom. Korea, unlike many other East Asian countries, effectively repelled the West's aggressive attempts to establish commercial trade relations through the use of military force, a policy now termed "gunboat diplomacy." U.S. and European traders abandoned their hopes for foreign trade with Korea after the destruction of the armed merchant ship, the U.S.S. General Sherman, in the Taedong River near Pyongyang on Sept. 2, 1866.

The Problem Let me begin by recapping the problem: For many years, North Korea's nuclear weapons program has been of concern to the international community. In 1993, North Korea provoked a very serious situation on the Peninsula with its announced withdrawal from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty, setting in motion a crisis-and-negotiation scenario that culminated in the 1994 Agreed Framework. While North Korea adhered to the Agreed Framework "freeze" on its declared plutonium production facilities at Yongbyon, last summer it became apparent that the North had been pursuing for several years another track covertly to acquire nuclear weapons, a uranium enrichment program.

Date: 09-26-99 When arms races erupt there is usually a trigger like North Korea's test-firing of the Dae Po Dong-I missile one year ago. Today, fears that Pyongyang would resume testing at the end of August have ebbed, but the reason may be that the missile crisis has already achieved its purpose for all parties involved. Commentator Terry Lee monitors the Korean language media for PNS's New California Media project, a collaboration of ethnic news media that hosts the first inter-ethnic portal on the Internet at www.ncmonline.com. T he North Korean missile crisis, punctuated by Pyongyang's on-and-off again threats to resume testing, resembles a play entitled "Opening a New Arms Race in Asia." The characters include a villain North Korea; victims South Korea and Japan; and a wizard, the United States. As the plot unfolds, however, the audience discovers that the characters are not exactly playing their assigned roles. Consider the latest twists: *In mid-August, South Korea and Japan held the first joint naval exercise in the South Western Sea of Korea, billed as a practice rescue operation.

Extractions: The lack of multilateral cooperation in Northeast Asia can be explained by historical animosities and contemporary differences in political systems, economic systems, national wealth, size of populations and territory, military power, and language and culture. Active multilateralism may not be possible until China democratizes and reunites with Taiwan, and North Korea democratizes and reunites with South Korea. Then, with only three major powers in the region, multilateral cooperation will be easier to achieve. 2. Essential Conditions for the Establishment of a Regional Cooperative Framework: Confidence Building and the Development of Reciprocal Relations among Nations on the Basis of Independent Initiative The importance of regional cooperation is steadily increasing. The North Pacific region is unique in having lacked cooperative relationships for more than a century. The last several years, however, have witnessed the improvement of bilateral relations within the region, and the ongoing establishment of partial systems of regional cooperation. This section takes up the issue of the principles which will be necessary to enable the future establishment of a framework for cooperation in the region.

Extractions: Staff Reporter Britain¡¯s top envoy in South Korea yesterday urged Northeast Asian nations to calm rising tensions over Japan¡¯s attitude toward its wartime wrongdoings and follow Europe¡¯s lead in pursuing regional cooperation. ``Of course, it¡¯s important to remember the past so that the terrible things that happened 50 or 60 years ago don¡¯t happen again,¡¯¡¯ Warwick Morris, British ambassador to Seoul, told reporters during a meeting at his residence. ``But it shouldn¡¯t totally influence the present and the future.¡¯¡¯ The 56-year-old diplomat, who first served in Seoul in 1975, said Koreans and Chinese should separate contentious issues such as Japan¡¯s claim over the South Korean islets of Dokdo, its bid for a permanent seat on the U.N. Security Council and its approval of controversial history textbooks. ``They are separate issues but they¡¯ve been wrapped up together,¡¯¡¯ he said, referring to the anti-Japan sentiment and large protests in both countries over the past two months. Relations between the three Northeast Asian powers have sunk under the weight of the historical disputes. China and South Korea have sought to block Japan from gaining a seat on the U.N. Security Council, saying it must show remorse for its past aggression before it can take a leadership role in the international community.
