[edit] cease-fire

Minor quibble over this section:

North Korea's relationship with the South has informed much of its post-World War II history and still drives much of its foreign policy. North Korea and South Korea have had a difficult and acrimonious relationship in the five decades since the Korean war.

The Korean war has not ended yet; all that's in place is a cease-fire.

[edit] General Clean Up

I've tried to make the article slightly more readable. There's still a lot of waffle and awkward phrasing going on though.

I changed "international legal regime to combat terrorism" to "international anti-terrorism legislation". It is unclear whether this was what the original text was meant to convey or not. It was unclear what the original text was meant to convey at all ;) 80.108.106.196

I've been updating this page esp with relation to the 6-party talks agreements. (The above passage/section is not by me though). Jsw663 05:53, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Copied from State

There is a major portion of this article taken verbatim from http://www.state.gov/r/pa/ei/bgn/2792.htm without quotation marks. I'm going to edit it tomorrow, so I'm not removing it immediately, as it is US Govt and therefore it's not a copyright violation. Epthorn 10:09, 14 November 2007 (UTC)

(sigh) and by "tomorrow" I mean when I get a break from Real_Life. Epthorn (talk) 14:10, 20 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sweden?

I heard that Sweden is the only Western Nation to establish a diplomatic mission in Pyongyang. It also mentions in the Canadian Travel Report on the DPRK to report to the Swedish Embassy there as there isn't a Canadian one. So it would be a good subject to add to this page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.26.36.13 (talk) 07:10, 4 October 2009 (UTC)


[edit] Burma

Guys adding a Burma page is necessary considering the scale of recent cooperation between the two countries in the strategic and military spectrum I could go into it more but you guys get the idea somebody make it I have all the sources —Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.105.67.58 (talk) 02:39, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

[edit] Countries that maintian diplomatic relations with North Korea

I have a question, may somebody tell me if North Korea maintains diplomatic relations with: Andorra, Argentina, Greece, Haiti, Iraq, and Papua New Guinea. Oxana879 (talk) 00:49, 26 February 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Latvia

The sentence “France is one of only two European Union members not to recognise North Korea, the other being Latvia” is wrong. Latvia does have relations with North Korea [1]. By the way, in this same article it's written that “France and Estonia are the only EU countries that do not have diplomatic relations with the DPRK”. — Glebchik (talk) 15:14, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I remember someone raised the issue with N.Korea-Latvia, replacing the latter country with Estonia on one place. However, couldn't find sources to that effect, though it's likely to be true. Miacek and his crime-fighting dog (t) 15:25, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

[edit] what a onesided article

its only about the west, why do we need to know that france doesnt recognize north korea but not that north korea helps mynmar to make their own nuke, neither are the relation listed with vietnam and other south asian countries. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kasmanis (talkcontribs) 05:52, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
