North Korea and the threat of nuclear weapons proliferation
11/22/2010
The view that is emerging that the US has to find some positive ways to engage with North Korea. China's support of North Korea makes it less likely that the regime will simply collapse as the US would hope. All this is happening in the context of North Korea's continued development of nuclear weapons capabilities in 2010.

Donald Trump's position on nuclear weapons- criticism of his remarks encouraging nuclear proliferation
04/01/2016
This WSJ editorial on April 1, 2016, cites Trump's remarks about the U.S. letting Japan and South Korea develop their own nuclear weapons and says this would encourage a nuclear arms race in Asia. Trump made his remarks in the context of North Korea, but the Journal points to Trump's lack of a grasp of the larger reasons why the U.S. for decades has provided a nuclear unmbrella to Japan and South Korea- to prevent a larger arms race. The Journal says Trump lacks knowledge of what the U.S. gets from Japan and South Korea in return for stationing troops and bases- $900 million from South Korea and $2 billion from Japan, and says it is more cost efficient for the U.S. to station at the current modest troop level than bring the troops home. Trump's failure to grasp the details and the larger issues is one of the criticisms of his campaign and his candidacy for the presidential nomination.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
