To no one’s surprise, 2024 is turning out to be a unique U.S. election year in which speculation about changes in U.S. foreign policy under each of the two candidates if elected far exceeds actual comments or insights provided by either camp. Candidate Trump is, not surprisingly, leaving options open and speaking more in terms of where President Biden is allegedly failing, while the Biden team is defending its current policy and avoiding suggestions that fundamental changes are necessary. Filling the vacuum of substantial policy debate thus far are experts across the political spectrum, and of course the North Korea issue is not exception.
There is much rumination about possible new policy directions regarding North Korea and its growing nuclear weapons program. There is universal consensus North Korea’s nuclear capability poses a growing dangerous threat that will challenge the winner of this year’s election for the coming four years. The foundational questions being asked boil down to two: “If reelected, does President Biden have any North Korea Plan B for term two?” and “What would a resumed Trump-Kim Jong Un relationship yield?”
