| SKor sez to give the North what they want... |
| 2003-01-04 |
| KoreaHerald South Korea is considering requesting the United States to guarantee the security of North Korea if the communist state gives up its nuclear weapons program, a top official in Seoul said yesterday. The Seoul government is expected to present the compromise proposal in three-way security talks with the United States and Japan to be held in Washington early next week. It's not a "compromise" when you give them what they want. North Korea has demanded the United States sign a nonaggression pact with it. Washington has rejected the demand, saying that there will be no talks unless the North first dismantles its suspected nuclear program. You know, like Ribbentrop and Molotov signed? A senior Foreign Ministry official suggested that the United States might guarantee North Korea's security in the form of a document, such as a letter from President George W. Bush to North Korean leader Kim Jong-il. "The security guarantee does not have to take the form of a nonaggression treaty that would require approval from Congress. Washington could just offer a written pledge to the North," the official said on condition of anonymity. And the North could give a written pledge not to develop nuclear weapons. Hey! That's... that's... Well, that's what the Carter agreement get out of them. And they didn't keep the agreement. So tell 'em to go to hell. |
