1) NK keeps nuke but no proliferation
2) peace treaty replacing armistice
3) normalizing diplomatic relations
4) withdrawal of U.S. troops (most of it anyway)
5) equal treatment for both SK and NK
6) economic opening
7) regime guarantee (includes immunity from prosecution for atrocities against its people)
8) hands off from ‘internal Korean problem’ (any conflict between two Koreas should be none of U.S. concern)
In essence, Chia Head wants NK to be another Saudi Arabia. Rationale: they have nukes and strategic location, even though they have no single drop of oil.
Just as Saudi can maintain its Wahabi regime with blessing of U.S., Chia Head will ‘insist’ that U.S. should support that NK maintains hereditary personality cult dictatorship.
1) not likely - NK has to do a South Africa
2) OK
3) OK
4) Not likely, actually NK needs US protection
5) OK, but NK has to become member of WTO etc, i.e. it will take time
6) OK
7) unlikely, the Senate has to ratify treaties.
8) No
In summary no solution is possible. NK will “collapse” and/or the regime has to obtain asylum in ...(Russia?)
