New Paper by Werner Pascha on EU-South Korea Relations

International Connectivity Initiatives and Implications for EU-Korea Relations. Working
Paper No. 1 of a new series on Korea of the Centre for East Asian Studies Groningen (CEASG), University of Groningen (Netherlands), Feb. 2022.

The paper discusses how South Korea and the European Union position themselves in the emerging and contested field of international connectivity or infrastructure initiatives. The paper proposes and makes specific suggestions for the content of a bilateral EU-South Korea connectivity agreement. Such an analysis is particularly timely, as the result of the recently held presidential election in South Korea will trigger a reappraisal of Korea’s diplomatic policy options, also vis-à-vis the EU.
