Biography
The European Voice reported on Korski's appointment as Ashton's adviser in in March 2012:
- Before joining the European Council of Foreign Relations, where he ran the Middle East programme, the Danish national was a defence and security adviser at the UK's Department for international development. In 2007, he was head of the UK and US provincial reconstruction team in Basra, southern Iraq. He worked as head of political and military affairs for Paddy Ashdown when he was High Representative in Bosnia and Herzegovina. All this is supposed to make him a specialist in post-conflict reconstruction, which some would say is the best possible preparation for working in the Ashton team. [1]
