Policy Forum 05-59A: Drifting into the Six Party Talks?

Peter Hayes, Executive Director of the Nautilus Institute, and Scott Bruce, the Nautilus Fellow at the University of San Francisco Center for the Pacific Rim, wrote: “In short, bad intentions and bad faith can only breed further mistrust, accelerate nuclear proliferation in the region, and extend the frozen cold war in Korea indefinitely into the future. The DPRK case shows once again that strategic drift is not substitute for realistic policy when it comes to nuclear weapons.”

Building Multi-Party Capacity for a WMD-Free Korean Peninsula

The Institute for Foreign Policy Analysis (IFPA) released this final report from their Multilateral Workshop, held in Shanghai and cosponsored by the Shanghai Institute for International Studies (SIIS), part of IFPA’s Building Six-Party Capacity Project (http://www.ifpa.org/projects/carnrok.htm). The report states: “Ultimately, it matters less exactly what form the capacity-building effort assumes. Instead the most important factor is that collective discussion be initiated and expanded among a wider range of functional activities, and preferably away from media attention and with minimal political interference.”

Policy Forum 05-57A: Reframing the US-DPRK Conflict

Erich Weingartner, Editor-in-Chief, CanKor Virtual ThinkNet on Korean Peace and Security (www.cankor.ca), wrote: “Re-framing is not an escape from reality. It is a conscious effort to return to reality. It requires communication, dialogue, learning and teaching, refusing to walk away when the going gets tough, engaging without illusion for the purpose of influencing outcomes. These may be viewed as very small steps, but this is a very long-term problem. And as we have learned from the six-party process, any step is better than no step at all.”
