摘要:The Research Center for Nuclear Weapons Abolition, Nagasaki University (RECNA) published a report entitled, “A Comprehensive Approach toward Northeast Asia-Nuclear Weapon Free Zone (NEA-NWFZ)” in March 2015. Since then, the RECNA has been organizing activities to follow up its own recommendations. One specific output is the Panel on the Peace and Security of Northeast Asia (PSNA), which was established in November 2016 to facilitate “political processes through timely policy recommendations and public engagement, to create a NEA-NWFZ as part of establishing peace and security in the region.” The panel consists of 17 members from eight countries (Australia, China, Germany, Japan, Mongolia, the Republic of Korea, the UK, and the US) with four co-chairs (Morton Halperin, Michael Hamel-Green, Chung-in Moon, and Hiromichi Umbeyashi). PSNA held its kick-off meeting in Nagasaki on 19–21 November 2016. The PSNA held its second meeting in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia, on 24–25 June 2017. This report contains three sections: (1) summary of the discussion at the second PSNA meeting, (2) comments from the co-chairs, and (3) updated analysis of the summary of discussion. While the contents of this report are based on PSNA activities, the author alone is responsible for the contents.
