But to whom is this statement addressed ?
As for the US, a continuously divided Korea with threatened but unrealized war is the gift that keeps on giving to China.

Good question James .... he deliberately left it vague.
this proves that China ready to Start war at any moment on any country with the word of TERRITORY issue
