Dear Friend:


We are pleased to share with you that John R Bolton will address the

"The Korean Peninsula Issues and US National Security" on September 1 
2026 9:30 AM - 10:25 AM EDT, Washington DC.

Throughout his distinguished career, John has been a staunch defender of 
American interests. While Under Secretary of State, he repeatedly 
advocated tough measures against the nuclear weapons programs of both 
Iran and North Korea, and the proliferation of weapons of mass 
destruction worldwide.  John led negotiations for America to withdraw 
from the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty so that the Bush

International Organization Affairs at the Department of State, 
1989-1993; assistant attorney general, Department of Justice, 1985-1989;

for International Development, 1982-1983 and general counsel, U.S. 
Agency for International Development, 1981-1982.

Schuster (June 2020) ,/Surrender is Not an Option: Defending America at 
the U.N. and Abroad,/published by Simon & Shuster/(/November 2007) 
and/How Barack Obama is Endangering our National Sovereignty/, published 
by Encounter Books (April 2010).

Ambassador Bolton was born in Baltimore, Maryland. He graduated with a 
Bachelor of Arts degree,/summa cum laude/,/Phi Beta Kappa/, from Yale 
College in 1970, and received his Juris Doctor from Yale Law School in 
1974. John currently resides in Maryland with his wife, Gretchen. They 
have one daughter, Jennifer Sarah, who also graduated from Yale College, 
and received her MBA and SM degrees from MIT in 2014 and is currently a 
senior manager at Nissan’s manufacturing facility in Mississippi..
