Reuters: U.S.-led pressure fractures as China, Russia push for North Korea sanctions relief
SEOUL (Reuters) - A proposal by China and Russia to ease U.N. sanctions on North Korea increases pressure on the United States and signals what is the likely end of unified efforts to persuade Pyongyang to give up its growing nuclear and missile arsenal.
On Monday China and Russia proposed that the United Nations Security Council lift a ban on North Korea exporting statues, seafood and textiles, and ease restrictions on infrastructure projects and North Koreans working overseas, according to a draft resolution seen by Reuters.

Seems like war with china and n.k is inevitable. Why we didnt stike 10 years ago is a mystery and a cataclysmic mistake. China's control of the South China Sea will ensure a long enough delay for North Korea to hold its own and Taiwan to be reclaimed.
These are th pre arranged steps toward a detente on for the Koreas.
It could not happen overnight.
Mr Trump reads the poker table and players again.
