Back to Six-party talks: The diplomatic soap opera continues
"There is no doubt North Korea’s decision to re-enter the long scorned Six-party talks was related to China"

The North Korean side has declared its willingness to participate in the Six-party talks. It remains to be seen whether this will actually happen, though. The Chinese side at present seems to see this as a significant diplomatic success because the Six-party talks have always been China’s pet project.
