iran sending top missile experts to north korea in the second half of 2012, who assisted north korea in preparing for the successful long-range missile test of december 2012. and reports that iran made handsome sum of money to north korea to send a high level delegation of nuclear experts to the february 2013 nuclear test, but as i said, this is kind of the unwritten, untalked-about problem that i think, given all of the information that has come out in recent years, that there is with north korea this deep involvement between north korea and iran. we also have the wikileaks documents describing how secretary rice instructed our ambassador in beijing to protest strongly to the chinese government, over aircraft from tehran and pyongyang unloading people and apparently weapons in beijing's airport and transferring these between these aircraft. from tehran and from pyongyang. a diplomatic effort which apparently bore no fruit. so i'm going to ask you, mr. seiler, if you can tell us anything about this north korean-iranian relationship, and what is the substance of it, if you can say any

i would submit that china's number one priority is not north career, it's the nuclear program but northorean's so-called they would prefer letting it proceed. it means that as a bumper country between the debt catic career and china terry carey today you that a year ago china made all these commitments to increase the issue on novereds question. there has been any. and i don't know if she would collapse. any event. sanctions on fuel and the economy let alone diplomatic protect. it seems me that this is some sort of about the element of in the room. and china has been a facile traitor. we motivate us and relax >> well, i don't really want to be a spokesman let me just speak to some of the elements of our corporation. happy -- i had the prin ledge of rying out once to beijing. , indement productive. it was six parties talks. i need our colleagues here in articulates the courtroom and a desire for piece and scruent. both of those clearly understand. i think with the interest and the dwe sires of all the region. the dbs of china as well. you know the prc has been a in he united states it ha

their number one priority is not north korea's nuclear program but north korea's so-called stability in. rather than taking any kind of economic or other action that would put pressure on the north korean regime they would prefer letting it proceed with its nuclear and missile program as long as it remains as a buffer country between democratic south corey and china. if that is true it seems it requires more honesty in our public diplomacy. secretary kerry reiterated that year ago china made all these commitments to increase the pressure on north korea. the only pressure it has increased his rhetorical. hardly any tangible efforts and yet the north korean regime would collapse tomorrow if china were to tighten any of its sanctions on fuel and energy and economic, diplomatic protection. it seems to me at some point this is the elephant in a room we don't want to discuss very often, that china has been a facilitator of the north korean threat and we should question what its motives are in doing so. >> i don't want to be a spokesman for the people's republic of china but let me speak to

it supplies north korea. -- it surprised north korea. the alliance is strong and provides a foundation for everything that we do. shift gears and ask .bout president parks policy the importance of her policy or the ability of her policy to succeed rests on the strength of the alliance. i'm wondering if you could talk about the relationship of our ?olicy with president park >> we first reached out to the election during the political thatign and it was clear it was built upon many of the same foundational for and suppose that we had, flexibility to talk, to explore, to probe, but a strong commitment to the nuclearization -- denuclea rization. onk would have to be founded these principles. to allow humanitarian aid to also hold the north accountable. but we have is an extremely powerful partnership. this was attributed to personalities to the u.s. rok relationship. it is built along the shared approach to a common thread that .s enduring whenever i hear an administration official then this goes back to the bush administration, not just the
