re: Susan Rice: US can 'tolerate' nuclear weapons in North Korea

like i originally said. the solution is regime change that is palatable to SK and China. many in SK have a desire for reunification but i think they'd settle for open access. then the question is who pays to run what's left of NK as China's puppet state

China does not want increased American influence on the peninsula.

This also pre-assumes there is a viable group in North Korea you could find that fits all the boxes that both sides require and done without the humanitarian and prolonged conflict and occupation problem China wants to avoid.

What is the evidence such an option is out there?
