EVENT DESCRIPTION

The summit meeting between North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and Russian President Vladimir Putin last September, coupled with the subsequent deepening cooperation between the two nations, carries significant ramifications for the geopolitical landscape in both Northeast Asia and Europe. The potential for North Korea to extend military support to Russia's actions in Ukraine, combined with the possibilities of enhanced economic and military technology collaboration between Russia and North Korea, poses a substantial challenge to U.S. global geostrategic considerations. These developments also bear noteworthy consequences for the recently established trilateral cooperation framework among the U.S., South Korea, and Japan. The GW Institute for Korean Studies, East Asian National Resource Center, Institute for European, Russian and Eurasian Studies, and the Research Institute for National Security Affairs at the Korea National Defense University warmly invite you to join us for an engaging discussion on this important topic.

• Jisoo Kim (Director, GW Institute for Korean Studies),
• Henry Hale (Director, GW Institute for European, Russian and Eurasian Studies),
• Young-June Park (Director General, Research Institute for National Security Affairs, Korea National Defense University),

Moderator,
