Virginia Korean-Americans for Obama is a grassroots organization founded to help organize the Korean-American community to elect Senator Barack Obama the next President of the United States.
Both Barack Obama and John McCain support the U.S. strategy of dismantling North Korea’s nuclear weapons program in a verifiable manner. But with little further discussion during this election season on the topic of the Korean peninsula, questions remain:
- Will an Obama administration pursue a revised KORUS FTA?
- Will an Obama administration continue Ambassador Hill’s current strategy on the North Korean nuclear issue?
- How will an Obama administration view the U.S-Korea relationship and the need for a permanent security framework in Northeast Asia?
Frank Jannuzi serves as the East Asia specialist as a professional staff member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and heads the Obama campaign’s Korea policy team.
As a Senate staffer, Mr. Jannuzi reports to Senator Joseph R. Biden (D-DE), the Chair of the Foreign Relations Committee, advising him on policy options, drafting legislation authorizing U.S. diplomatic operations, security assistance, and foreign aid, and representing Senator Biden in discussions with the American public as well as with foreign government officials and the media. From 1989-1997, Mr. Jannuzi worked as the East Asia regional political-military analyst for the Bureau of Intelligence and Research (INR), U.S. Department of State. His portfolio at INR included a variety of regional security issues, including the Korean Peninsula, China’s defense modernization, and territorial disputes in the South China Sea and Kuril Islands. Mr. Jannuzi was the founding editor-in-chief of Peacekeeping Perspectives, the State Department’s classified journal on multilateral peacekeeping and humanitarian operations.
Mr. Jannuzi holds a B.A. in history from Yale University and a M.P.P. with a concentration in international affairs and security from the John F. Kennedy School of Government, Harvard University. He conducted his International Affairs Fellowship in Japan, sponsored by Hitachi, Ltd., at the Institute for International Policy Studies and Keio University.
