How Should the United States Counter the CRINK Axis? | The Impossible State of Play

The recent Xi–Kim summit has further strengthened ties between China and North Korea, with potential implications for the broader dynamics among the CRINK countries and regional security. Please join a special live episode of State of Play and The Impossible State on Thursday, June 11 at 2:00 PM EDT to explore strategies to counter the grouping. Dr. Victor Cha, Igor Khrestin, Joseph Kim, and Dr. Maria Snegovaya will join host Will Todman to discuss CRINK’s key vulnerabilities and examine U.S. policy recommendations for addressing the challenges the grouping poses to democracy, human rights, economic security, and national security. The discussion will draw on the GWBI’s recent report on CRINK and explore the implications of growing alignment among these authoritarian actors. This event is made possible through general support to the Center for Strategic and International Studies. --------------------------------------------- A nonpartisan institution, CSIS is the top national security think tank in the world.
