Why is Bush so insistent on having open talks, involving China, Russia, etc., about nuclear weapons with North Korea? Given that if North Korea develops nuclear capabilities (which it apparently has already), N. Korea would be a threat to the surrounding countries. However, can’t the U.S. have “bilateral” talks with N. Korea? Sure these talks would only involve the U.S. and N. Korea, but who is to stop the other surrounding countries from also having bilateral talks with N. Korea?

Well, Im no political genious, but I'd imagine a sort of "intervention" with NKorea involving several countries would work a lot better than the US bullying another country. Again, I'd assume its a strength in numbers kind of thing and when dealing with a potential nuclear threat, I think thats a good idea.
I think its also interesting to mention right now that North Korea isn't the top forign concern of the US. That spot is a toss up between Iran and China, which is odd, considering you don't hear much of that in the news.
