Focusing on solutions, Bruce Bechtol argues in Rogue Allies that the U.S. must enforce existing sanctions to target North Korea's finances. North Korea utilizes sophisticated cyber laundering through Bitcoin and lax regulations in countries like the UAE to fund its operations. Containment strategies should include cyber warfare, vessel seizures, and selective strikes. Bechtol warns that Russia and China's open support for North Korea complicates these efforts. Ultimately, hitting the regime's "pocketbook" is the most effective non-kinetic means to disrupt their role as the logistics center for global revisionism. (4/4)JANUARY 1956
