Everyone is talking about North Korea and the Kim Jon Un regime with its nuclear ambitions. Saying how we need to get China to do more to deter North Korea's expansion of it's military ambitions.
No one is looking at the situation from the aspect of the Chinese expansion of their own power interest in the region. China has been on a territorial expansion program for a while now with the building of islands in the South China Sea. I think China views North Korea as an extension of their own ambitions.
With the expansion of the North Korean missile and nuclear programs ( in which China played a major role ) China can skirt the non proliferation treaty (to which they reluctantly signed on to ). China a country with billions in population is not concerned about a few million refugees from North Korea, the entire peninsula of Korea under their control would be to their liking. China has already demonstrated ( The Korean conflict of the 50's ) how quickly they would defend North Korea.
China not doing enough to halt the plans of North Korea is by design. China is taking care of China's interest.
