초록

Sino-North Korean relations have reached a new deadlock after North Korea’s fourth nuclear test in January 2016. Particularly, China faces a very difficult position in the international community. As one of the G2 it is required to join sanctions against North Korea, but at the same time it needs to help the country according to their pact of alliance. When North Korea tested its third nuclear test, China had been rather harsh on North Korean leadership. Unlike the latter’s first and third nuclear tests, China actively participated in the UN sanctions and openly criticized the regime for its third nuclear test. However as time passed, it was revealed that China’s sanctions against North Korea was toothless and short-lived. China lifted the ban on oil export to North Korea, which has been a lifeline for the regime. Sino-North Korea trade had not declined. With North Korea’s fourth nuclear test, the trade between the two countries even increased. This paper examines the reasons behind China’s inability to abandon North Korea even though it displayed apparent participation in sanctions against the regime. In so doing, the paper shows that China is facing an alliance dilemma and that North Korea’s geopolitical and strategic value serve as the ‘Weak State Power’ against China.

Abstract

Sino-North Korean relations have reached a new deadlock after North Korea’s fourth nuclear test in January 2016. Particularly, China faces a very difficult position in the international community. As one of the G2 it is required to join sanctions against North Korea, but at the same time it needs to help the country according to their pact of alliance. When North Korea tested its third nuclear test, China had been rather harsh on North Korean leadership. Unlike the latter’s first and third nuclear tests, China actively participated in the UN sanctions and openly criticized the regime for its third nuclear test. However as time passed, it was revealed that China’s sanctions against North Korea was toothless and short-lived. China lifted the ban on oil export to North Korea, which has been a lifeline for the regime. Sino-North Korea trade had not declined. With North Korea’s fourth nuclear test, the trade between the two countries even increased. This paper examines the reasons behind China’s inability to abandon North Korea even though it displayed apparent participation in sanctions against the regime. In so doing, the paper shows that China is facing an alliance dilemma and that North Korea’s geopolitical and strategic value serve as the ‘Weak State Power’ against China.
