Quite interesting account of little known episodes.

They were not exactly happy campers, despite their facade of solidarity.

My recollection is that the Soviets and Chinese became so irked at the inefficiency of Kim Il Sung & faction in running the Communist-held areas of North Korea during the Korean War, after Chinese intervention, that they installed their own guys to run NK for the duration of the war.

Kim Il Sung managed to ditch that faction and regain control a year or so after the war ended, but he had it in for Mao for some time after that.

I saw a documentary on NY times by Krugman. According to him there is deep resentment against the Chinese by the North Koreans. The N.Koreans see the chinese as "corrupted" apart from the obvious ethnic differences.
