19世纪80年代美国驻朝鲜外交代表在美国军事顾问赴朝问题上的推动作用

The Role of the U.S.Diplomats to North Korea in Promoting the U.S.Military Advisor to North Korea in the 1880s

美朝条约换文不久,朝鲜即向美国提出聘请顾问的要求,切盼首获军事顾问。美国驻朝外交代表从中发挥了推动作用,其中首任驻朝公使卢赛斯.福德和代理公使乔治.福久的表现尤为突出。然而,美国驻朝外交代表与美国政府之间的态度反差,实质是当时美国对朝“不介入”政策在该问题上的反映。尽管美国最终向朝鲜派出了军事顾问,但在该过程中美国官方的种种表现在相当大程度上预示了美朝之间的这种合作并不会有积极的成果。

After the ratification of US-Korean treaty,Korea requested to have American advisers,especially military advisers being in urgent need.American diplomats in East Asia played the key roles in pushing such despatch,among those were Lucius Foote,the first US minister to Korea,and George Foulk,the charge d’affaires to Korea,and the others.The attitude of the US government apparently went against that of those American diplomats.In effect,it was the reflection of the non-involvement policy of the US towards the Korean affairs,which appeared on the question of military advisers.Although the US dispatched military advisers in the end,its appearance showed a sign of failure to a large extent in such bilateral cooperation.
