Some say he was not so anti-American as North Korean propaganda would have us believe. It was rather out of loyalty to his father, whom he succeeded, that he kept up the pretence. It remains to be seen what the attitude of his successor will be.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/13680261-525925068148163792?l=johndanvers.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>DCHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02204577861080086134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13680261.post-78299842506006963442011-12-21T20:46:00.000-05:002011-12-25T08:45:30.950-05:00We're back in business.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/13680261-7829984250600696344?l=johndanvers.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>DCHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02204577861080086134noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13680261.post-1118808022977169932005-06-14T23:59:00.000-04:002011-12-28T06:43:25.163-05:00This blog replaces the page formerly known as Diplomatic Talk. The approach is quite different. Instead of presenting statements made by leading political figures and statesmen, which can be found elsewhere on the Web (if you take the time to look for them), the blog will present our own comments on international affairs and diplomacy.<br /><br />Under each entry there is a COMMENTS link. This enables a visitor to the blog to make their own contributions.<br /><br />Please join the debate.<br /><br />Technorati tag: <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/politics" rel="tag">politics</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/13680261-111880802297716993?l=johndanvers.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>DCHhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02204577861080086134noreply@blogger.com
