| Lee, Hu Discuss Package Deal for Norks | |
| 2009-09-25 | |
"The two leaders agree on the package initiative on giving North Korea security assurances and epoch-making economic assistance in return for the irreversible dismantlement of nuclear weapons," a senior presidential official said. "They discussed a recent visit by Chinese State Councilor Dai Bingguo, President Hu Jintao's special envoy to Pyongyang and agreed to strongly urge the North to return to the six-party talks as soon as possible." North Korean leader Kim Jong-il had told Dai during the visit that he was willing to engage in "bilateral and multilateral talks." Lee called on China, the host country of the six-party talks, to make efforts to persuade the North to abandon nuclear weapons and join the international community. The two leaders agreed that bilateral cooperation has been developing in various fields since May last year, when they agreed to upgrade relations to a "strategic cooperative partnership," the official said. | |

| #1 This explains Kimmie's thrashing around like a fish out of water yesterday. Exactly what he Doesn't want to happen, lose his terror facility and saber rattling ability in one fell swoop. He could scream insanely at the USA, but NOT at China, they'll string him up by his own guts, and smile doing it. |
