Najam in The Boston Herald on N. Korean Missile Tests
Adil Najam, Dean of the Frederick S. Pardee School of Global Studies at Boston University, was recently interviewed on North Korea’s attempt to test its adversaries with a brazen missile launch over Japan earlier this week.
Najam was interviewed for an August 31, 2017 in The Boston Herald entitled “North Korea Out to ‘Test Limits’ With Missiles.”
From the text of the article:
North Korea’s rogue dictator’s brazen missile launch over Japan Monday was an attempt to “test the limits,” according to one local expert, who noted follow-up threats of more tests in “a meaningful prelude to containing Guam” has the Trump administration wrestling with an appropriate response.
“North Korea is really testing our patience,” said Adil Najam, the dean of Boston University’s Pardee School of Global Studies. “They’re trying to test the limits here and my own guess is that they’re coming close to the U.S. being pushed into a corner where they’ll have to do something. … This sort of behavior is very provoking, and the U.S. must be weighing its options very carefully right now and cannot just remain silent.”
Adil Najam is the inaugural dean of the Pardee School and is the former Vice Chancellor of the Lahore University of Management Sciences in Lahore, Pakistan.
