"what little help China has provided." What? How is any of this China's fault? In fact, why push all the work onto China if they wanted NK to succeed? Literally the same as any other articles blaming China for the stupidest things.

You guys can check out LiNing and Anta if you're looking for shoes. A lot of Chinese youths now choose them instead of Nike and Adidas for their sneakers. They have good design, quality, and collaborate with superstars like Klay Thompson and Dwayne Wade.
Funnily, Anta's logo is like a reoriented LiNing logo.
Some of their shoes go for hundreds of dollars because of premium design and quality.
And of course MUJI China's online store is currently featuring Xinjiang cotton apparel.

I mean China's fault on the UN sanctions is very minimal. China cant approve the crazy stuff Kim did every day back then.
China has "face" and it must show that it is a responsible power, so by taking all these crazy actions, Kim doesnt give diplomatic space for China to block the sanctions.
And China could veto the sanctions but then it would require solid assurances that these actions wouldnt happen again because China would be seen responsible for blocking the sanctions in the first time
Well does this mean Kamala Harris has to wait longer on the sidelines? She's clearly waiting to sub in for Biden.
What better way of galvanising all Chinese and Asians by extension, around the world than for white people to publicly state that they are going to stand in the way of improving Chinese living standards and technology.
The US can’t get to China easily while assets, intels, etc.. are in China proper. But when these are outside of China, such as in B&R countries, they become easy targets.
Sure, Chinese leaders just love having a neighbour with nuclear tip missiles that can reach Beijing in 10 minutes
Yeah all those years towing the line to sanction North Korea. Now America and SK has dreams of turning NK into another Vietnam against China, with nukes. This is the reward that China is getting.
The writing is already on the wall. It is no longer in China's interest to help the US, Japan and SK suppress NK. I think China is already helping to develop NK's economy. Even its military. We saw all their new stuff in their last military parade. But I believe the Kim family in NK still probably does not want to open up the country more. And China is respecting their sovereignty to do that.
Very much this. Kim is a lot smarter than some people give him credit for and you call tell he wants a closer relationship with China from all the stuff he's signalling. Notice how in last year's parade his boys abandoned the Soviet style march and instead switched to PLA style march so they don't seem as bouncy? That's not a coincidence. As soon as the unrest in Hong Kong started in 2019 North Korea came out with a scathing piece in their state media with the tone of "just give the word uncle and I'll crush them all under my steel tread". China had to calm him down.
Word (from 观棋有语) is this year he wants to start a Deng style economic reform as well as put in a rule that his successor no longer has to be from the Kim family.
Kim is certainly a smart man and rightly doesn't trust the West. Afterall he saw the Libyan example play in real time.
The next step has to be him opening up his nation atleast to China. Let there free flow of people, private investment.
