Our very own Van Jackson drops knowledge about maximum pressure (dangerous), whether de-nuclearization on the Korean peninsula is possible (it’s not), and why the United States needs military-to-military relations with North Korea.

The other speakers are Yoon Young-kwan of Seoul National University and Ben King, New Zealand’s Deputy Secretary of Foreign Affairs.
