N.Korea to China: Future nuclear tests hinge on US
2006-10-23
North Korean leader Kim Jong Il has told a Chinese envoy his country has no immediate plans to conduct another nuclear test but that US policy toward Pyongyang will determine the future, a news report said. Kim made the remarks to Chinese envoy Tang Jiaxuan during talks last week in Pyongyang to discuss the North's first-ever nuclear test on Oct. 9, Kyodo News agency reported Sunday from Beijing, citing unnamed officials familiar with the discussions.

Kim told Tang that while there is no plan to hold a second nuclear test for the moment, North Korea would have to respond if the United States continued to pressure the country, according to Kyodo.

#5  Kim is the one that's being a problem. Kim is the one that has to make consessions. We won't play the Maddy half-bright game. Either Kimmy gives up nukes, or he gets nuked. No other options will even be considered.

#3  What the Chinese really want is for Uncle Sam to feed their Rottweiler, saving the Chinese billions, while preserving a thorn in his side. Why Uncle Sam would agree to Chinese wishes is a mystery to me.
