In closing, Mr. Speaker, the United Nations reports that North Korea trades in missiles and nuclear technology with not only Syria and Iran, but even Burma. And this is a grave situation since China won't do anything, and North Korea takes our western money with the empty promises of peace, but still rattles its sabers and soon will rattle its nuclear weapons. The United States must finally adopt a policy that holds both North Korea and China accountable for their belligerent actions against South Korea and the free world. I do want to thank the chairman for bringing this strong resolution to the House floor. I urge all my colleagues to adopt this resolution.
