Abstract

This note proposes a desideratum to resolve the North Korean conflict and to promote peace and security around the Korean peninsula. A political change in North Korea may be possible only with China's full support and cooperation with international sanctions against North Korea. The key to inducing China's cooperation is for the US alongside of South Korea to make a credible promise that respects Chinese security concerns in the northern part of the Korean peninsula in the event of political change.
