UNITED NATIONS (CNN) -- The U.N. Security Council on Saturday voted
unanimously to impose sanctions against North Korea in response to the
country's claimed nuclear test.
The vote was scheduled soon after negotiators agreed on the sticking
point of cargo inspections, the language over which China had expressed
some concerns earlier.
Rather than mandating stop and search operations, "the resolution will
say to countries to inspect as necessary all goods going in and out of
North Korea," CNN's Richard Roth reported.
The aim is to stop materials and technology that could be used for
nuclear weapons production from going to or from North Korea.
Diplomats from the five permanent council members plus Japan gathered
in closed-door meetings Saturday morning to reach agreement.
While details of the draft resolution were incomplete, diplomats said
it could prevent materials for weapons programs and luxury goods from
being sold to North Korea.
The language is directed at North Korean leader Kim Jong Il, who has a
long, documented record of living a life of luxury while his people
wasted away in famine. On Friday U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. John
Bolton said, "The North Korean population's been losing average height
and weight over the years, and maybe this will be a little diet for Kim
Jong Il."
Earlier Saturday, Chinese Ambassador to the U.N. Wang Guangya expressed
concerns about the draft's stop and search provisions.
"=2E.. This interception idea, once they put it in operation, it could
easily lead by one side or the other to a provocation of conflict which
would have serious implications for the region, for the countries,"
Wang said.
One Western diplomat described Chinese and Russian concerns as
differences over procedural matters, not deal breakers. Russian and
Chinese diplomats have met with North Korea this week and could be
getting input from Pyongyang.
President Bush on Saturday urged the adoption of a "strong" U.N.
Security Council resolution, saying "peace and security in northeast
Asia and a nuclear-free Korean Peninsula" are the goals. (Watch as Bush
demands a clear message be sent to North Korea -- 4:08)
"We will do what is necessary to achieve these goals. We will support
our allies in the region. We will work with the United Nations, and
together we will ensure that North Korea faces real consequences if it
continues down its current path," Bush said in his weekly radio
address.
He said the United States will increase its defense alliances with
Japan and South Korea, including cooperation on ballistic missile
defense and the prevention of North Korea from importing and exporting
nuclear or missile technologies.
On Friday the Japanese Cabinet approved wide-ranging sanctions against
North Korea. (Full story)
North Korea claimed Monday it had tested a nuclear weapon, although the
claim has not yet been verified. Some analysts have questioned whether
the test was successful.
A preliminary analysis of air samples from North Korea shows
"radioactive debris consistent with a North Korea nuclear test,"
according to a statement sent to U.S. lawmakers Friday from the office
of Director of National Intelligence John Negroponte. (Watch for the
first evidence that Pyongyang did test a nuke -- 1:23 )
If the evidence is confirmed, the United States would be in a position
to say the North Korean test was nuclear, a U.S. official told CNN
Friday.
Two U.S. government officials with access to classified information
earlier told CNN that an initial air sampling showed no indication of
radioactive debris.
Pyongyang's claim sparked international condemnation.
To build support for the resolution, the United States has agreed to
some changes. They include dropping a ban on North Korean imports and
exempting money intended for purchases of food and medicine from a
freeze on North Korean assets. Language encouraging further diplomatic
efforts also was added to the latest version.
However, the U.S. proposal still calls for an arms embargo and a ban on
materials that could be used in nuclear or missiles programs. The
proposal also seeks a ban on travel by North Korean officials, an
embargo on luxury goods and inspections of cargo imports and exports.
China has expressed concern that because the proposed sanctions fall
under Section 7 of the U.N. Charter, which makes them binding on all
member states, they could lead to a blockade or even military action to
enforce them.
Versions of the draft resolution late Friday ruled out military action
against North Korea, in response to pressure from China and Russia, the
AP reported.
Rice mission
As the council members met in New York, word came that North Korea may
consider resuming six-nation talks aimed at resolving the nuclear
dispute.
Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Alexander Alexeyev and North Korean
Deputy Foreign Minister Kim Gye-gwan "discussed opportunities to resume
the six-nation process and the settlement of the problem of a full
denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula by peaceful and diplomatic
means," Russia's Foreign Ministry said on its Web site.
The Bush administration has insisted any negotiations with Pyongyang be
conducted within the framework of six-party talks among North Korea,
the United States, Russia, China, South Korea and Japan. The latest
draft of the Security Council resolution calls on North Korea to return
to those talks without precondition.
U=2ES. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice is to visit Asia next week to
shore up alliances and discuss the North Korean crisis.
Rice is scheduled to be in Tokyo, Japan; Seoul, South Korea; and
Beijing from Tuesday through October 22, State Department spokesman
Sean McCormack said Friday.
"She's going to be talking about how to go about actually implementing"
the expected U.N. resolution, McCormack said.

Thanks. I must have thrown the memo away inadvertently. Imagine how
embarrassed I would have been at the coven tonight if I didn't show the
proper dismay at the sanctions.
Does anyone know if babies will be on the menu? Mmmmmmm.

You can't REALLY believe this will stick? The Chinese are never going to
push North Korea
as hard they have to since it could mean millions pour over the border and
affect the Chinese
economy and political climate.
Be patient, the Chinese are going to cave. Then Taiwan and Japan start
building bombs. Can you
imagine China looking at Taiwanese Nukes? Ole George better wake up and do
his job,
all that stuff he snorted in the 80s probably effected his cognitive
reasoning skills!

One wonders if there are many sane republicans left. John McCain
promised to keep torture out of our laws, he even passed his own anti
torture law (like we needed another) only to have Bush ignore it with a
signing statement. McCain - the coward caved in and gave Bush what he
wanted pro torture legislation.
I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that one must be insane to remain
in the GOP.

I think you misunderstood what he wrote. It's not so surprising given how
transparently hysterical it is.

This allows China to pretend it's cooperating while in fact doing
nothing.
