On November 20th at 6 PM, the Pacific Council will host Joel S. Wit, a former State Department official, alongside Lynn Turk, President, Celltron Inc., for a conversation on Wit’s newest book release, Fallout: The Inside Story of America's Failure to Disarm North Korea. For almost four decades, the United States has tried to stop North Korea’s attempts to build nuclear weapons and the missiles to deliver them. Wit takes readers to the front lines of nuclear negotiations and to fierce policy debates and secret diplomatic gambits, recounting how perilously close the United States and North Korea have come, on various occasions, to nuclear confrontation.
