Recent Developments in PSI

October, 2004
US President Bush announced the Proliferation Security Initiative (PSI) in May 2003 with the goal of preventing the proliferation of weapons of mass
destruction (WMD) and related materials, and a series of new developments—most notably an increasing number of participating countries, the adoption of specific interdiction principles, and the conclusion of bilateral ship-boarding agreements for more efficient interdiction — gave a boost to the global initiative during the first year. The PSI is likely to take root as an indispensable element of the global WMD nonproliferation regime despite a number of concerns that accompany it, to include its efficiency as a WMD interdiction strategy, the possible violation of the right of innocent passage through territorial seas, and the exercise of the right to interdict suspicious ships on the high seas.
South Korea s position on the PSI should be consistent with the principle of curbing WMD proliferation. At the same time, Seoul needs to maintain a balanced view by taking into account the ROK-US alliance and the PSI s possible implications for North Korea issues.
