All Russian goals met

All Russian goals met

· Sign agreements with at least three other actors thereby maintain relevance in international affairs

We signed four agreements, including:

an agreement with the DL for $1.5B in humanitarian aid, including food, wheat, and oil to the DPRK;

an agreement with the UN for $500M to support aid for refugees and displaced persons within the DPRK;

an agreement with the U.S. allowing U.S. nuclear inspectors to be based in Vladivostok before any nuclear inspections take place in the DPRK; and

an agreement with the PRC, which condemned any aggressive action by any foreign government in the internal affairs of the DPRK.

· Prevent DPRK refugees from spilling over DPRK/Russian border

We did. We amassed our own MVD troops on the border, and the UN helped with refugee assistance in the DPRK, which reduced displaced persons in the region.

· Push for resolution of DPRK issue in UN where Russia maintains veto

We did. All negotiations in the end went through the UN.

· Maintain status quo on Korean Peninsula

Done. There was no Korean unification in the short-term. There was one North Korean government in the end.

· Provide support for the DPRK-DL faction over the BC faction whenever possible

We provided $4.5B to the DL faction, including humanitarian, economic, and military aid. In the end, we supported the DL’s decision to agree to the power sharing arrangement with the BC.

· Exert influence whenever, wherever, and however possible to lessen US and Chinese power in region

The U.S. committed to removing 10K troops near the DMZ. The U.S. and China never unilaterally solved this Korean crisis, but it was worked through the UN. Russian power has increased in the region, both politically and militarily.
