Xi sees where this is headed if he doesn’t reign in his boy Kim. No more playing both sides for the Chinese.
Just a further note.....it is becoming increasingly common for Chinese textile firms to take orders from international fashion brands and then ‘send fabrics and other raw materials to North Korean factories just across the border, where worker wages are much lower, to be sewn into the finished clothes. The clothes are sent back to Chinese ports and exported globally, bearing Made in China tags.....
THIS is the trade war the sanctions etc are currently affecting China has concerns about. If N.Korean people can’t work in their factories for China it’s going to cost China heavily to make them in their own country.......
