well i don't exactly know the politics behind all these moves...but on the issues of North Korea and Iran, China just holds different views from the U.S. on how to solve these problems... such as diplomacy and dialogue...
What benefit can China get if North Korea possess nuclear power and perhaps grow strong enough to stand up to China...Surely China doesn't want that happen, does it?

Probably not. But I don't see how anyone can deal with NK when the leader is insane.
