Popping China's balloon
Popping China's balloon
When U.S. President Joe Biden and his Chinese counterpart, Xi Jinping, met in Bali last November, they agreed to hold high-level meetings to establish “guardrails” for the Sino-American strategic competition. U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken was scheduled to visit Beijing to inaugurate that effort last month. But when China sent a surveillance balloon (visible to the na...

Slippery slope of occupation
Slippery slope of occupation
The only thing to celebrate on the first anniversary of Russia's war is the scale and courage of the Ukrainian resistance, which has surprised everyone, including Ukraine's allies and maybe even the Ukrainians themselves. Through self-defense, Ukraine is achieving self-transformation.

It's not time to fight, but to cooperate
It's not time to fight, but to cooperate
It is common for neighbors to have conflicts in any region. Last year, Russia invaded Ukraine. To Korea, neighboring Japan was the Russia of its past. Imperial Japan was once the invader who trampled on the freedom and spirit of the Korean people. This historical fact does not change over time.

A memo to next World Bank president
A memo to next World Bank president
OXFORD - The World Bank will soon pick a new president. With the world facing a confluence of climate, debt, energy, and security crises, the leadership change comes at a pivotal moment for the institution. A more active leader could put the Bank in pole position to assist countries in crisis, help fight climate change, and facilitate cooperation between the United States and...

Germany's self-centered war debate
Germany's self-centered war debate
Two months after Russia's invasion of Ukraine last year, Jurgen Habermas, perhaps Germany's leading public intellectual, published a commentary that triggered one of the country's most ferocious political debates in decades. Habermas asked how Germany should position itself in the widening Russian-Ukrainian war. Germans still haven't reached any agreement on an answer.

The left's capital punishment
The left's capital punishment
In the traditional (and somewhat outdated) distinction between left and right, left-wing parties represent workers, while right-wing parties represent the owners of capital. When the left is in charge, according to this view, it tends to use its power to reduce the share of national income that goes to capital, either through raising corporate taxes or taxing personal capital...

Korea-Japan relations at crossroads
Korea-Japan relations at crossroads
What a difference an administration makes. Japan has transformed from a “perpetrator” of “crimes against humanity” under the former Moon Jae-in administration into a “partner that shares universal values with us” under the current Yoon Seok Yul administration, at least according to March 1 Independence Movement Day speeches. The contrast is sharp and shows quite clearly the d...
