외신이 본 NATO 정산회담 및 한반도 정세

Hello and welcome.
It's Tuesday July 9th here in Korea and you're watching Issues and Insiders.
I'm Min Sunhee.
Security takes center stage this week in Washington D.C. as global leaders at NATO seek a joint stance against unprovoked acts of aggression.
For more I have Celio Fioretti a correspondent for La Croix here in the studio.
Celio it's good to have you here.
I also have Jacco Zwetsloot host of NK News Podcast with us.
Jacco welcome back.


1) Celio, the annual NATO summit kicks off in Washington on Tuesday local time.
Let's begin with some details regarding the agenda of this latest gathering.

2) Jacco, keeping in mind North Korea's open support of Russia's aggression against Ukraine, do you suppose South Korea should seek to place heavier weight behind Ukraine with perhaps, lethal weapons provision?

3) Celio, this latest NATO summit also reportedly comes amid prospects of far-right European governments "unfriendly to NATO coming to power".
How valid are these concerns, in your opinion?

4) Jacco, South Korea has been invited to the NATO summit for the third year in a row.
What are the gains of a greater alignment with NATO for South Korea, and vice versa, how does engagement with South Korea serve the Western security alliance?

5) Celio, do you suppose a potential shift in U.S. leadership this November will greatly affect the NATO framework?

6) Jacco, what about the trilateral defense alliance involving South Korea, Japan and the U.S.?
Does it look to be affected under a Trump leadership?

7) Jacco, would it be possible to, perhaps, witness some form of breakthrough in tensions on the Korean peninsula under a possible Trump administration?

8) Celio, South Korea, Japan, and the U.S. recently held an inaugural multi-domain exercise called Freedom Edge, which North Korea strongly condemned.
Do tell us a bit about this latest trilateral drill and its implications.

9) Jacco, North Korea last Tuesday claimed to have tested a new tactical ballistic missile capable of carrying "a super-large warhead".
Quite a number of pundits including those here in South Korea are casting down on this claim.
Please do explain.


All right.
