The Risks of Nuclear Proliferation in Asia

Melanie, Chris, and Zack debate nuclear proliferation in
Northeast Asia. Are Russia’s nuclear saber-rattling, North
Korea’s advancing capabilities, and China’s nuclear modernization
program likely to spur additional nuclear proliferation? How
satisfied are South Korea and Japan with current U.S. nuclear
extended deterrence guarantees? And what should policymakers in
Washington do in response to questions about the U.S. nuclear
umbrella? In their last show of 2022, Chris says goodbye to
Twitter (at least for now). Melanie asks for a more serious
debate about immigration. And Zack commends the work and
collegiality of the think tank community.
