William R. Richardson: “It's better to talk to them. It's better to engage them.”

Perhaps a vaguer statement that says tensions are less and the war is over, OK. Maybe. But not as a tradeoff unless there is substantial denuclearization.

We absolutely need them to keep enforcing sanctions or the pressure on North Korea will deteriorate.

But, yet, China and Russia are cheating and so what we wanted to do is go after the bigger banks.

I would not trade an end to the war treaty or unless there is a denuclearization of sizable numbers of dismantling of weapons and WMD and missiles.
