China and North Korea: the long goodbye.

Jonathan D. Pollack from The Brookings Institution quotes Ambassador Wu Dawei, Japan’s long-time leading negotiator on the Korean nuclear issue, who expressed mounting frustration that North Korea lets China’s advice ‘go through one ear and out the other ear’. Ambassador Wu suggests that North Korea ’ had signed its own death warrant’. For link to Pollack article, see below.
