August 18, 2017 . Mexico and the NAFTA Negotiations Event video and key quotes "[The NAFTA negotiations] come with an enormous amount of anxiety – anxiety about whether or not this can be a successful negotiation, anxiety about whether the U.S. executive branch will stick with it, and anxiety about questions of timing and political change." - Duncan Wood Inside Kim Jong-un's Scramble to Kill Off His Family Commentary by Jean H. Lee If any theory guides the selection of North Korea's dictators, it is survival of the fittest – or the most vicious. While Kim Jong-un was escalating his country's nuclear threat, the paranoid leader was also eliminating anyone in his family who might challenge his rule. Pence's Southern Challenge Commentary by Cynthia J. Arnson "Ultimately, the success of Pence's trip, and of Trump policy in Latin America, will not be measured in sound bites about Venezuela or the common struggle against transnational crime. It will be seen in the U.S. ability to accommodate and even extend the region's embrace of multilateral cooperation, open markets, free trade, democracy and human rights as the core values upon which a sustainable future is based." - Cynthia J. Arnson Sources and Methods Kim Il-sung's Political Tightrope As a newly declassified tranche of documents illustrates, Kim Il-sung's North Korea existed within a narrow set of parameters; it brutally purged pro-Soviet and pro-Chinese members from its leadership, but never went so far as to try to break away from the Communist camp. On this knife's edge, the "Hermit Kingdom" survived. Wilson in the News Why Pakistan Hates Malala (Foreign Policy) While she is a darling of the West, Malala Yousafzai is reviled in much of her native Pakistan. Michael Kugelman explains why. 7 Pillars for Success in Afghanistan (The National Interest) The military alone is not enough for the U.S. to find success in Afghanistan, writes Earl Anthony Wayne. Difficult Negotiations Ahead as NAFTA Talks Begin in Washington (VOA) "I foresee nothing but obstacles; that's the nature of a good trade negotiation," says Laura Dawson.
