Summary
To help U.S. policymakers better manage the myriad risks they face on the Korean Peninsula, this report assesses whether and how to pursue national security diplomacy with North Korea.

Persistent engagement with North Korea's national security elites, the report argues, is a policy wager with a large potential upside and very little cost and risk.
