NEW YORK, July 11, 2013 — In a discussion called 'Avoiding Apocalypse': Searching for Peace with North Korea' Asia Society New York hosted former Governor of New Mexico Bill Richardson and Ambassador Donald P. Gregg, former U.S. Ambassador to the Republic of Korea, to analyze the present North Korea threat and discuss how it might be resolved. ABC News International Editor Jon Williams moderated the discussion, in which the experts called for creative approaches and active engagement rather than isolating the North Korean regime.

Korean audiences were able to watch the event through a special live-stream on the Korea Herald website as well as tweet questions to Governor Richardson and Ambassador Gregg. Watch the full discussion below:
