The Start of a Bold Journey for Peace Settlement of the Korean Peninsula by Na Kyung Won

In his speech at the U.N. General Assembly last month, South Korean President Moon Jae-in repeated a call for the end-of-war declaration on the Korean Peninsula. Under what conditions can an end-of-war declaration contribute to a peace settlement of the Korean peninsula? This lecture will discuss the conditions for a bold journey to a genuine peace settlement of the Korean peninsula under the Biden administration and how to relate those conditions to the international order in Northeast Asia and Asia as a whole. In addition, the honorable speaker will discuss the role of female leadership in South Korea on the issue of foreign affairs.
