Panel Discussion: The Future of the Six-Party Talks

Experts and young activists provide a view from civil society.

The Six Party Talks are currently stalled. What is the likelihood that they will resume? Can they be the vehicle not only for the denuclearization of the Korean peninsula but a larger peaceful transformation of Northeast Asia? And what is the role of civil society in this process?

Join prominent young activists Wookshik Cheong, Akira Kawasaki, and FPIF co-director John Feffer for a panel discussion of the next steps for peace in Northeast Asia.

Wooksik Cheong is the representative of Peace Network and the author of many articles on Korean unification and regional security.

Akira Kawasaki is an executive committee member of Peace Boat and the NGO Advisor for the International Commission on Nuclear Non-proliferation and Disarmament.

John Feffer is co-director of Foreign Policy In Focus at the Institute for Policy Studies and the author of North Korea, South Korea: U.S. Policy at a Time of Crisis (Seven Stories).
