Assessing Threats Facing the U.S.-Korea Alliance
The dynamism of Asian markets, China鈥檚 rise, and Japan鈥檚 quest to become a normal state, play key roles in determining the future of the US-ROK alliance. At the same time, U.S. perception of China鈥檚 growing influence differs from that of Korea鈥檚. Similarly, Washington does not see eye-to-eye with Seoul over changes in Japan鈥檚 policies. While the bilateral alliance remains strongest in dealing with North Korea, the two allies also have different views on dealing with this challenge.
Assistant Secretary of State for East Asia and Pacific Affairs Daniel Russel will deliver the keynote address of the second annual U.S.-Korea dialogue hosted jointly by the 浪花直播 Center and the East Asia Foundation of Seoul. Join us for this half-day conference, where opinion leaders from Korea and the United States will discuss their concerns for the future and seek ways to increase cooperation and mutual political, economic, diplomatic, and security benefits.
