As one of Asia’s largest economies and a treaty ally of the United States, South Korea holds abundant influence in the region. ASPI’s South Korea work focuses on promoting strong U.S.-South Korea relations and enhancing South Korea’s cooperation with other regional actors to promote prosperity, security, and sustainability in the Asia-Pacific. For instance, ASPI’s Toward a Northeast Asia Carbon Market initiative provides a roadmap for linking carbon markets between Japan, China, and South Korea. ASPI is also currently engaged in an initiative to develop concrete ideas to advance the U.S.-Korea economic relationship. Given the immense challenges coming from South Korea’s northern neighbor, the U.S.-Korea alliance and stability on the Korean Peninsula are also key areas of focus for ASPI. ASPI convenes policy dialogues and panel discussions, contributes analysis, policy recommendations and expert commentary to deepen understanding of South Korea and its impact on the region.
