Enduring ROK-U.S. Alliance and Partnershipby Shin Chae-Hyun, Consul General of the Republic of Korea in San FranciscoÂ
The bilateral alliance between the Republic of Korea and the United States was forged in blood during the Korean War and formalized by the 1953 Mutual Defense Treaty.
For more than six decades, the ROK-U.S. alliance and partnership has served as a linchpin for peace, stability, and prosperity on the Korean Peninsula, the Asia-Pacific Region and beyond. In the meantime, South Korea has become one of the most vibrant democracies and advanced economies in the world.
In recent years, the two allied countries have expanded its scope of cooperation to meet various global challenges jointly in such areas as counter-terrorism, non-proliferation, climate change, development aid, and human rights.
Meanwhile, the security environment in Northeast Asia remains fluid as North Korea has posed threats with its nuclear and missile programs while completely ignoring the welfare of its own people and against a series of United Nations Security Council resolutions.
Against this background, Consul General Shin will share the latest developments in the Korean peninsula and Northeast Asia. He will also touch upon the current status and future prospect of the ROK-U.S. alliance and partnership.
