@jeongminnkim and @joonhawrites wrote a comprehensive timeline of events of everything that led to Yoon Suk-yeol's decision to declare martial law, the events of the night and everything that happened since for @southkoreapro. It's also off paywall.

I asked the President about Russia’s military cooperation with North Korea - what his red lines were and when he would take a stronger stance against Russia.
I didn't get a concrete answer. Instead he said he wants to manage the relationship as smoothly as possible.

@joo_young_kim & I argue that variance in the alliance’s defense vision indicates no one vision but multiple contested visions...repeated efforts to craft a shared strategic outlook may indicate a lack thereof. @Diplomat_APAC @KoreaEconInst

While some may see this call for nuclear weapons in South Korea as a tactic to "get more say" in nuclear planning for now, this debate is not going to simply go away with increased consultation.

Doing some research on South Korean nuclear weapon development in the 1970s and thought this was interesting: US review of South Korean newspaper coverage of India's nuclear test in 1974. Things have certainly changed.

This is achievable in a way that's meaningful only if part of a larger effort to change the relationship--as Kim Yo-jeong says here. That means a declaration ending the war has weight when it consecrates other shifts in the same direction. Change the valence, change the world

"Arms race" is an easy to understand narrative phrase good for headlines, and it seems to be in the interest of Pyongyang and Seoul to spin it that way... but I'm not sure it really describes what's going on here. Would NK *not* be developing these missiles if the ROK weren't?

"If #NorthKorea resorts to provocation, #Biden is likely to shut down any chance of talks," says @38NorthNK Fellow @clintwork1 in @TIME. “Biden is not inclined to give Pyongyang the benefit of the doubt, nor are those who advise him."
