The South Koreans refuse full sanctions on N. Korea
The White House tried to spin this as not a big deal, but South Korean president Roh said yesterday that South Korea will not implement the sanctions on the North.
But perhaps most telling of all was this inclusion: After their meeting there was a joint appearance at which, "Neither leader took questions." (AP)
Think back through all the meetings and all the Bush appearances with even some of the most objectionable world leaders. Has there ever been one without "three questions a side?"
Roh said his country "is not taking part in the full scope" of the security initiative" but that it would "support the principles and goals of the PSI."

I was somewhat surprised, but not shocked, when I read this news. S. Korea has always felt a fraternal bond with the North. They're not a puppet state of the US.... someone clue in the White House.

Yeah. Plus, their root motivation is reunification, not the US or Japan's concerns over nukes.
