Is Seoul Prepared to Join a Five Eyes Plus Framework?
August 24, 2020
Research Fellow, Manohar Parrikar IDSA, Dr. Jagannath Panda’s commentary ‘Is Seoul Prepared to Join a Five Eyes Plus Framework?’ has been published in 38North at the Stimson Centre, Washington DC, on August 24, 2020.
The piece argues that intelligence sharing is a delicate exercise requiring immense trust. With the FVEY framework poised to expand into the diplomatic and trade sectors, Seoul has the opportunity to build closer ties with some of the world’s biggest democratic powers. This platform would not only help ROK check China’s growing might and the increasing North Korean threat, but also diversify its partnerships in the region and beyond.
