Albuquerque, New Mexico: The Importance and the Impact of the Strategic Partnership Between the US and South Korea

Join us for an event on the status, future, and importance of the upgraded alliance between the US and Republic of Korea (ROK or South Korea), co-hosted by the Stimson Center’s Korea Program and the World Affairs Council of Albuquerque. The strength of the US-ROK alliance holds enduring value for the US and local communities against today’s evolving geopolitical challenges and in pursuing our collective goals of freedom, democracy, security, and economic prosperity. The conversation will delve into how the US-ROK alliance reflects these shared aims and values through all facets of the relationship and the benefit of this relationship for the American population on both local and national levels. Topics will include how the outcome of the US presidential election could impact the future of peace and security on the Korean Peninsula, and the alliance’s role in the US Indo-Pacific strategy and in joint leadership on addressing global issues.
