It provides a valuable ranking of U.S. interests, and calls for a firm commitment from the Obama administration to seek denuclearization of the Korean peninsula, backed by a combination of sanctions, incentives, and sustained political pressure, in addition to increased efforts to contain proliferation. It notes that China's participation in this effort is vital. Indeed, the report makes clear that any hope of North Korea's dismantling its nuclear program rests on China's willingness to take a strong stance. For denuclearization to proceed, China must acknowledge that the long-term hazard of a nuclear Korea is more perilous to it and the region than the short-term risk of instability. The report also recognizes that robust relations between Washington and its allies in the region, Japan and South Korea, must underpin any efforts to deal with the North Korean problem. It looks as well at regime change and scenarios that could lead to reunification of the peninsula. At the same time that the Task Force emphasizes the danger and urgency of North Korea's behavior, it recognizes and applauds the beneficial U.S. relationship with South Korea, which has proved to be a valuable economic and strategic partner. In this vein, the Task Force advocates continued close coordination with Seoul and urges prompt congressional passage of the U.S.-South Korea free trade agreement. 410 0$aIndependent task force report ;$vno. 64. 517 3 $aUnited States policy toward the Korean peninsula 606 $aNuclear nonproliferation$zKorea (North) 606 $aSecurity, International 607 $aUnited States$xMilitary policy 607 $aUnited States$xMilitary relations$zKorea 607 $aKorea (North)$xMilitary relations 607 $aKorea (South)$xMilitary relations 607 $aChina$xMilitary relations 615 0$aNuclear nonproliferation 615 0$aSecurity, International. 676 $a327.73051 701 $aPritchard$b Charles L$01684345 701 $aTilelli$b John H.$f1941-$01705750 701 $aSnyder$b Scott$f1964-$01099923 701 $aHaass$b Richard$0119525 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820599503321 996 $aU.S. policy toward the Korean peninsula$94092708 997 $aUNINA
