SUMMARY:Understanding Kim Jong Un’s Economic Policymaking Phase II: Results and Implications
DESCRIPTION:Stimson Center | Virtual Event \nDescription: The North Korean government has become increasingly secretive about its economic information\, making it difficult for analysts to gather accurate data\, determine precisely what the country is doing\, and how it works from within. Join Stimson Center nonresident fellows Robert Carlin and Rachel Minyoung Lee as they discuss results from the second phase of the “Understanding Kim Jong Un’s Economic Policymaking” project analyzing DPRK media and academic sources and assessing which foreign economic ideas have been adopted by North Korea\, the impact of external factors on its economy and infrastructure\, and how these could shape the country’s future foreign policy and security decisions. \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:Assessing the Future of US Iran-Policy Amidst Popular Uprising
DESCRIPTION:Schar School of Policy and Government\, George Mason University | IN-Person \nDescription: How should US Iran-Policy be reframed in light of recent political events there\, namely the uprisings and revolutionary movement\, and vis-a-vis Russo-Iranian collaboration in Ukraine and Iran. This forum seeks to inform the general public\, academics and policy-makers about the current state of events in Iran and their implications for regional and international political and security spheres. With that in mind\, how should the Biden administration and Congress adjust Iran-focused policies\, including its sanctions regime and nuclear talks\, and what should the US ask of its allies and international partners? \nThe registration link can be found below.

SUMMARY:Russia’s Road to War with Ukraine
DESCRIPTION:Stimson Center | Virtual Event \nDescription: Tracing the relationship between the two countries from the breakup of the Soviet Union in 1991 to Putin’s invasion in 2022\, what emerges from Samir Puri’s book\, Russia’s Road to War with Ukraine\, is a portrait of a nation caught in a geopolitical tug of war between Russia and the West. While Russia is identified as the sole aggressor\, we see how Western bodies such as the EU and NATO unrealistically raised Ukraine’s expectations of membership before dashing them\, leaving Ukraine without formal allies and fatally exposed to Russian aggression. \nAs a former international observer\, Samir Puri was present for several of the major events covered in his book. He uses this experience to ask honestly: how did we get here? Why does Vladimir Putin view Ukraine as the natural property of Russia? Did the West handle its dealings with these countries prudently? Or did it inflame the tensions left amidst the ruins of the Soviet Union? Were there any missed opportunities to avert the war? And how might this conflict end? \nThe registration link can be found below.
