Brookings’ ‘Disarmament Negotiation Adjustment’ Vs Heritage ‘Failed in 1994’ on North Korean Nuclear Weapons

The US Democratic Party-affiliated strategic group demanded coordination with North Korea through disarmament negotiations, and the Republican strategic group began to oppose it.
Robert Einhorn, former special adviser on non-proliferation and disarmament at the State Department, said on the 25th, “The top priority right now is to limit North Korea’s nuclear and missile capabilities. said to the voice (VOA).
"To reduce the nuclear threat, we need to reach an agreement on engagement and a series of restrictive measures," said Einhorn, a former disarmament official of the Democratic Obama administration. It includes confidence-building measures that will lower it,” he said.
Andrew Yeo, chair of South Korea at the Brookings Institution, said about the discussion of disarmament and freezing of North Korea's nuclear weapons, "The U.S. government needs to tacitly acknowledge North Korea's possession of nuclear weapons because it requires space and flexibility in negotiations with North Korea." We are negotiating arms control with North Korea without actually mentioning it,” he told VOA.
Bruce Klingner, a senior researcher at the Heritage Foundation, said, “In the past, the international community tried to ‘disarm North Korea’ but failed. “This is not a new approach,” he said. “The 'limit and freeze' approach when North Korea joined the NPT in 1985, the introduction of IAEA safeguards in 1992, the inter-Korean nuclear agreement in 1992, and the Geneva agreement in 1994 were all violated. and did not keep the promise of the denuclearization agreement that followed.”
Geoffrey Lewis, director of the Center for Nonproliferation at the Middlebury Institute, a nuclear policy expert, said on the 3rd of the VOA's series of short-range missile launches, "The recent firing of short-range missiles from various places and time zones in the past week shows that it is already in the stage of actual deployment." Launching short-range missiles is no longer a missile test, but a training exercise for military units using the missile. North Korea already knows that these short-range missiles are working,” he told VOA.
Lewis, director of the Center for Non-Proliferation, first published in the New York Times the theory of coordination of disarmament negotiations, saying, “Let us recognize North Korea’s status as a nuclear power and negotiate disarmament in order to reduce the substantial nuclear threat.”
Robert Calucci, former special envoy to North Korea at the 1994 Geneva negotiations, said, “There is no reason why the United States cannot engage in 'disarmament' dialogue with North Korea. There are ways to reduce the threat of nuclear weapons that we know of,” he told VOA.
Former special advisor Einhorn added a proviso that “North Korea cannot recognize its status as a nuclear power because it developed nuclear weapons in violation of its international obligations in the first place” as a condition of the disarmament negotiations.
Gallucci, a former special envoy for North Korea at the State Department, said, "The United States has officially recognized its nuclear status as a non-permanent member of the Security Council with India, and Pakistan, Israel, and North Korea remain a country with no possibility of exporting nuclear-related equipment under US law." said that arms control negotiations are possible.
Albright, the head of ISIS, said, “It remains a classic example in which a mismanager endures international pressure and eventually receives compensation.” opposed to
Heritage Foundation Chairman Edwin Fulner met with President Yoon Seok-yeol more than three times since the early days of his election in April, and on September 13th, Ambassador Cho Tae-yong met with the US Ambassador to the United States.
“The Chinese way of persuading China is to remind China of its options,” Fulner, a former Republican Trump transition member, told VOA on May 6. I'm saying you have to choose between the two. Of course, China does not want South Korea, Japan, and Taiwan to become nuclear powers. It goes against China's interests and our interests," he said. <Refer to the Heritage Foundation Chairman, ‘Korea and Japan’s pressure on China with Taiwan’s nuclear arms’, May 6, 2022>

Former special advisor Einhorn warned on the 19th that "the moment tactical nuclear weapons are deployed on South Korean territory, they will become potential targets for North Korea's preemptive strike."

The Yun Seok-yeol administration began discussing the redeployment of tactical nuclear weapons in Korea, and pro-Republican strategic groups began to insist on Korea's independent possession of nuclear weapons.
