On September 25, the Asan Institute for Policy Studies and the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) co-hosted a strategic dialogue titled, “Foreign Policy in a New Era: The ROK and U.S.”
The strategic dialogue was a historic moment as Foreign Minister Kang Kyung-hwa gave her first public speech in Washington D.C. In her speech, she emphasized the importance of the ROK-U.S. alliance and also argued that a diplomatic solution is the first and foremost preferred approach to solving the North Korean crisis.
