What Trump’s NSS and NDS Mean for North Korea
|
Jihwan Hwang, Professor at the University of Seoul, analyzes that the Trump administration’s second-term National Security Strategy (NSS) and National Defense Strategy (NDS) reflect the “Donroe Doctrine”. With the U.S. seeking “decent peace” the North Korean issue may also be reshaped within the broader framework of U.S.-China relations. Professor Hwang suggests that, amidst the weakening of U.S. security commitments and demands for increased burden-sharing, South Korea must transcend the role of a mediator and become a genuine “peacemaker” capable of leading negotiations. |
