The U.S.-Republic of Korea presidential summit on October 16 is expected to generate significant international attention with regards to North Korea, China, and other pressing areas of cooperation. More importantly, as it has in recent years, the upcoming summit will serve as the stage where both nations reaffirm their alliance, bounded by decades of cooperation and common interests.
On October 13, the Brookings Institution’s Center for East Asia Policy Studies will host a discussion on the state of U.S.-Korea relations and past U.S.-ROK presidential summits. The speakers will help frame the upcoming visit by President Park Geun-hye and will explore the evolution of the bilateral relationship. Panelists include James Person of the Wilson Center’s Hyundai Motor-Korea Foundation Center for Korean History and Public Policy; Duyeon Kim of the Carnegie Endowment; and Brookings Senior Fellow Katharine H.S. Moon.
Following the discussion, panelists will take audience questions.
