Strategic Stability and Extended Deterrence on the Korean Peninsula: A Conversation with Ankit Panda

Oct. 17, 2022: Strategic Stability and Extended Deterrence on the Korean Peninsula: A Conversation with Ankit Panda

In this webinar, Stephan Haggard, director of the Korea-Pacific Program, talks with Ankit Panda on the recent North Korean missile launches and the prospect of a seventh nuclear test. North Korea recently passed a new nuclear weapons law that outlined a much wider array of operational uses for its nuclear arsenal. What are the implications for strategic stability on the peninsula? What steps are being taken—and should be taken—to strengthen extended deterrence through the U.S.-South Korea alliance? And is there still a path to a nuclear or missile deal of some sort or is that door now completely shut?

Thanks for making this public. It's fascinating to see the reasoning behind various regimes' defense postures as an outsider to the field. Glad to see we have people like him minding the store.
