중동 상황, 한반도 영향

Welcome to Press Perspective for this Tuesday March 10th here in Seoul.
I'm Min Sun-hee.
Seoul and Washington kicked off their annual defense drills earlier this week and Pyongyang has been quick to denounce them.
For more on this as well as the ongoing unrest in the Middle East I have Shreyas Reddy with NK News.
Shreyas welcome.
I also have Professor Ban Kil-Joo at the Korea National Diplomatic Academy.
Professor Ban it's good to have you on.


1) Shreyas, let's begin here in this part of the peninsula where South Korea and the U.S. have kicked off their annual all-domain military exercise while the Trump administration also advances its military mission against Iran.
Do tell us a bit about this latest drill and its timing.

2) Professor Ban, the annual exercise comes amid local media speculation that the U.S. is relocating some of its assets here to support the mission in the Middle East.
Should we be worried about such speculation?

3) Shreyas, there is also media coverage here about prospects of "North Korea's nuclear weapons drive deepening" in light of the strikes against Iran.
What is this outlook based on?

4) Professor Ban, do you share this outlook?

5) Shreyas, an analysis by CNN says the events unfolding in Iran has set the stage for North Korea's Kim Jong-un to decide how to engage with the U.S.
First, do tell us a bit about this analysis, and your takeaways.

6) And Professor Ban, do you believe talks between Kim and Trump are likely?
If so, when might they take place, what might they discuss, and what do the two look to gain from such interaction?

7)Shreyas, North Korea appears open to talks with the U.S., but averse to talks with South Korea.
I've been asking this question to our panel of pundits here in recent times, and I'd also like your take on the discrepancy.
How do you care to explain it?

8) Professor Ban, last week, the Unification Ministry called for a declaration to formally end the Korean War.
Critics claim such a declaration will undermine deterrence.
Could you explain this claim for us?


All right.
