[EAI Online Seminar] COVID-19 and the New World Order Series 6.
The Present and Future of ROK-U.S. Regional Cooperation: Perspectives on Quad
 
The East Asia Institute (President Yul Sohn) held the online seminar “The Present and Future of ROK-U.S. Regional Cooperation: Perspectives on Quad” on May 06, 2021. The seminar is the sixth of the [COVID-19 and the New World Order] online seminar series. The ROK-U.S cooperation is expected to be affected by the new foreign policy of the Biden Administration. Additionally, the “China hedging” image of Quad not only causes internal disagreements among existing members, but also causes other countries to become hesitant in associating with the group. In order to expand and strengthen cooperation, Quad needs to extend its interests into non-traditional security and functional issues. This seminar discusses the limitations of Quad and how it’s viewed by Korea and the U.S. as well as the steps Korea should take to maintain friendly relations with both the US and China. [More
