The nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula will not be resolved easily, but there’s reason to hope that a resolution can be nursed into reality. China, Russia, and the Republic of Korea should actively promote the resumption of dialogue and not allow the matter to drift.

Cooperating over North Korea is essential for both China and the U.S. – not just for the good of the DPRK, but for the Sino-American relationship at large.

China did not take the route of the United States and Soviet Union in the Cold War era but held to a rational, reasonable policy. Barring some major international shift, it’s a posture that’s not likely to change soon.
