The National Committee on American Foreign Policy (NCAFP) currently
has several projects on Northeast Asian security issues. They are:
- To help break the impasse between China and Taiwan through dialogue
among prominent Americans, Chinese, and Taiwanese. This project
is maintained with the generous support of The Henry Luce Foundation,
Ford Foundation and The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation.
- To explore and build support for cooperative, multilateral means
of ensuring a denuclearized Korean Peninsula, developing an appropriate
verification regime, and integrating North Korea into the global
community through dialogue among influential Americans, Chinese,
Japanese, Russians, South Koreans, and North Koreans. This project
is maintained with the generous support of the Carnegie Corporation
of New York, The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation
and the Korea Foundation.
- To strengthen the U.S. relationship with Japan, our principal
ally in the region, to strengthen the U.S.-R.O.K. relationship,
and to help lay the groundwork for stability and cooperation in
East Asia. This project is maintained with the generous support
of the the Japan Foundations Center for Global Partnership
and The John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation.
- To explore the potential for a Northeast Asian Security Forum
to be composed of the United States, Japan, China, Russia, South
Korea, and North Korea.
- To explore the economic dimensions of these security issues
as they become increasingly intertwined.
In pursuit of these objectives, the NCAFP relies on the Track II
approach. This approach brings together government officials, academics,
and think tank experts to discuss current security challenges in
an informal atmosphere. Free from official constraints, they can
engage in frank discussions out of the glare of publicity and build
trust and mutual confidence-something that is not always possible
in official meetings. Please click on the links below to view the
