China ‘shifts position’ on North Korea

There are clear signs that China is losing patience with North Korea, America’s former top diplomat in Asia has said.

The age-old worry is that, should “something” occur to North Korea in response to any overt and violent move it may make towards its southern neighbor, the US or other countries, China will intervene and the escalation will become systemic and unstoppable.

Time to re-think that position?
