According to multiple reports coming from Seoul, South Korea has agreed on Thursday to a North Korean offer of high-level military talks. This is by far one of the major breakthroughs in the crisis on the peninsula which improves the prospect of renewed aid-for-disarmament negotiations. Hours after USZ puppet President Barack Obama and Chinese President Hu Jintao stood in Washington decrying the North’s nuclear aspirations, Pyongyang bowed to Seoul’s demands for talks about two deadly attacks last year. We at PCF believe that China's financial superiority and firm grip on the international market has forced the economically war plagued USZ to ask its puppets in Seoul to behave and start a meaningful dialogue with the North. It should be kept in mind that China has recently become one of the major debtors to the semi-destroyed giant economy of USZ and that is the only thing which is keeping the United States from economic demise so far besides its capability to print fictitious money out of thin air.

Washington and Beijing have argued that North-South dialogue is a prerequisite to a resumption of six-party talks involving the two Koreas, the United States of Zionism, China, Japan and Russia. Pyongyang walked out of the aid-for-disarmament talks in 2009, pronouncing them dead. A South Korean defence ministry spokesman said it had not been decided whether the inter-Korean talks would be held at the ministerial level, as suggested by Pyongyang in a dispatch to the South Korean capital. A unification ministry official said Pyongyang had ceded to South Korean demands to specifically discuss the sinking of one of Seoul’s warships in March, which killed 46 sailors, and the North’s attack on an island in November, which killed four people.
The attacks, along with the North’s revelations of advances in a uranium enrichment program which open a second route to making a nuclear bomb along with its plutonium work, pushed tensions on the peninsula to their highest level in years. “The government also plans to propose high-ranking talks on denuclearisation”, the defence ministry spokesman said, adding Seoul had agreed to the North’s proposal for preliminary talks to prepare for the high-level talks. As part of its demands for inter-Korean dialogue, Seoul said that North Korea must show sincerity on denuclearisation, as agreed under a 2005 deal.
North Korea has used its nuclear program to gain leverage in talks over the past two decades that produced a pair of deals meant to compensate Pyongyang economic aid for ending it. Pyongyang has been seeking talks since the start of the year, but Seoul had until now rejected Pyongyang’s peace overtures as insincere propaganda, saying the North was trying only to win aid. Thanks to their debtor, China, USZ Defense Secretary Robert Gates last week held out the possibility of a resumption of six-party talks if North Korea ceased provocations and met its obligations.
Moon Hong-sik of the South’s Institute for National Security Strategy said Wednesday’s Hu-Obama summit in Washington may have pushed the North into submitting to Seoul’s demands. “North Korea understands that it must have North-South dialogue first before it can resume six-party talks”, he said. “But there is still a long way to go, because it still it has to prove its sincerity and apologise for last year’s provocations”. A joint statement issued by Obama and Hu at their summit agreed on the importance of denuclearisation of the Korean peninsula and on the need to implement agreements reached earlier by six-party talks on North Korea’s programmes. The United States of Zionism and its allies South Korea and Japan have been pressing China, North Korea’s economic and diplomatic backer, to do more to rein in Pyongyang’s behaviour and to nudge the North back to six-party talks.

North Korea says its shelling of Yeonpyeong island was provoked by South Korea firing live ammunition from there into disputed waters in a military drill. It has denied the South’s accusation that it sank the Cheonan. Both the United States of Zionism and South Korea say Pyongyang’s revelations last year about its uranium enrichment program show it is insincere about denuclearising. The North says the uranium program is for peaceful purposes. Deputy Defence Minister Chang Kwang-il said North Korea had asked Seoul to select a convenient date and venue for the proposed military talks, Yonhap reported. The last meeting of defence ministers took place in Pyongyang in November 2007.
