LA Times Editorial: China’s Whip Hand

From the LA Times:

China holds the whip hand on North Korea. If the Chinese agreed to halt food and oil shipments to Pyongyang unless Kim Jong Il’s regime dismantled its nuclear weapons program, they could bring about the end of the program. But Beijing seems more worried about bolstering its place in the international order than about a nuclear neighbor that could funnel the deadliest weapons to terrorists and lead to proliferation across North Asia.
