I would not be surprised if China makes a 'secret' military pact with N.Korea in light of current tensions with the US and rhetoric coming out from China.

China for years would say the something along these lines. "North Koreans are crazy, we can't control them" or "North Koreans are stubborn and don't listen".

What is the deal with Kim and his sister always in official photos when the other side has a wife?
