The North Korean Missile Threat and Alliance Reassurance

Arms Control Wonk

The DPRK launched a small satellite using its latest SLV, the Kwangmyลngsลng. In response, the United States and its regional allies deployed missile defense systems to defend their population from the DPRK threat. One problem: the systems deployed had no hope of shooting down the DPRK rocket. Todayโ€™s podcast explores the politics of alliance reassurance and why the US needs a new playbook to deal with DPRK space launches.
