The Biden administration is currently reviewing U.S. policy on North Korea in close coordination with the government of South Korea. Policy recommendations range from rebuilding maximum pressure and focusing on denuclearization to shifting focus to improving relations and pursuing arms control measures. How should the Biden and Moon administration approach diplomacy with North Korea in the months ahead? What lessons can be learned from the experience of the previous administration? Join our distinguished panel for a discussion on this important topic.
