The nature of the North Korea nuclear problem is a security issue. China supplies North Korea with most of its oil and Russia is the largest employer of North Korean forced labour. Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying saying China was not to blame for the situation on the Korean Peninsula. She said: “The focus of the conflict is not China. The cause of escalating tensions is not China and the key to the problem is also not China. Foreign Ministry Hua said, that China had “made tremendous sacrifices and paid a heavy price” by implementing sanctions against North Korea. China’s determination and sincerity couldn’t be doubted. China has been saying all along that more sanctions would not help the situation”, Wang Sheng professor of Korean affairs at Jilin University in northeastern China said: “While the United States has been accusing China for not being strict enough in restricting North Korea economically, they can now see that North Korea won’t be stopped even if China imposes more trade pressure”. Cai Jian, a Korean affairs expert from Fudan University in Shanghai, said: “North Korea will not stop developing nuclear weapons because of the sanctions, as the regime now sees greater importance in increasing its bargaining power before any negotiations take place”, So I still think it is not an option for the US to start a war when it seems North Korea’s nuclear weapons are more developed than expected.
