AB - This paper aimed to analyse the changes of security situation in Northeast Asia and the tasks of national defence policy of the Republic of Korea. For the purpose of that, this paper searched for the changes of security situation in Northeast Asia and future warfare in general, the objectives and tenets of the national defence policy, the ROK’s national defence policy tasks, and concluded.
Within Northeast Asia, mutual exchanges and multilateral cooperation have been increasing. Yet the causes for disputes and the maritime demarcation issue, still exist leading concerned nations to compete against one another in bolstering their military power, which destabilizes the region. Despite the sanctions levied by the international community and its economic hardships, North Korea has put its utmost effort into constructing a strong and prosperous nation by the year 2012. The fact that North Korea has the world’s fourth largest conventional military force and that it has developed WMDs, including nuclear weapons, poses a serious threat to peace on the Korean Peninsula.
The Ministry of National Defense(MND) strives to reform national defense by building slim but strong advanced ROK military forces capable of meeting the challenges posed by the changing strategic environment of the 21st century and future warfare in general. The basic policy direction for national military reform is to change the military structure and develop a pragmatic, advanced defense operational system to counter various security threats posed at home and abroad.
Our military should do its best to build advanced military capabilities capable of ensuring deterrence and victory incases of an all-out war as well as coping with the threat of local provocations by North Korea by making systems, the C4I system, which enables network-centric warfare, and a mobile strike capability will be obtained.
