Special advisory: North Korea's brinkmanship

20.05.2024
North Korea's military development and provocative actions, including missile testing and aggressive rhetoric, have heightened tensions in the Korean Peninsula.

North Korea's actions are likely part of a brinkmanship strategy aimed at gaining political concessions and sanctions relief from the US while ensuring the regime's survival under Kim Jong Un's leadership.

While the likelihood of a rapid deterioration in the security environment remains low in the short to medium term, the possibility of a limited conflict in 2024 cannot be ruled out.
