Ceasing the moment can avoid so much pain later. We had time before NK originally got nukes to negotiate a deal with Deng era China which would have involved a two prong invasion and giving north korea up to become a Chinese puppet state.

I'm glad to see the US appearing to cease the moment similarly here.
