On the 70th anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean War, the Korea Project is exploring different facets of this conflict in a series of Webinars. For our July 30th event, we’re excited to partner with the Intelligence Project. We’ll be co-convening a panel of senior practitioners and scholars to revisit the role of intelligence during the Korean War period and examine the long-term impact of this conflict on the U.S. intelligence community.
