US must give China reason to help rein in North Korea

Benjamin Zala

Research output: Contribution to specialist publication › General Article

Abstract

Following North Korea's successful intercontinental ballistic missile launch, very little has changed. Despite the rhetoric from the United States about "all options" being on the table, including using military force to disarm Mr Kim Jong Un's regime in Pyongyang, the current policy is a continuation of the old one. What the previous Obama administration used to refer to as "strategic patience" - relying on sanctions to force the North Koreans back to the negotiating table - is alive and well.
