On May 20th, the National Committee on American Foreign Policy, along with The Japan Society, co-hosted "Statecraft in the 21st Century: Policy Coordination on Traditional and Non-Traditional Security Threats". The public program brought together a group of renowned and experienced policy practitioners from the United States, China, Japan, and the Republic of Korea to discuss the increasingly complex 21st-century policy environment, and the need for sustained multilateral coordination on non-traditional security threats—including pandemics—in addition to addressing persistent traditional security threats. The discussion, with opening remarks by NCAFP President & CEO Susan Elliott, and moderated my Dr. Joshua Walker, President & CEO of the Japan Society, can be viewed below, or on our YouTube channel.
