Cheney: China, curb your dog!
2004-04-22
The Marmot’s (Final) Hole, a Korean blog reports the following from the Korean press:

According to the Jo Gap-je, the chief editor of the Chosun Ilbo’s Monthly Chosun Magazine, U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney apparently laid down the law to the Chinese during his visit to Beijing. More specifically, he is said to have told Chinese leaders, "If China cannot prevent North Korea from arming itself with nuclear weapons, the United States, too, cannot prevent Taiwan and Japan from arming themselves with nuclear weapons.

This could explain Kim being summoned to Beijing and, given his probable conduct there, the explosive exclamation point to his rail journey.
