[edit] POV
The entire opening section is unsourced, and appears to be heavily POV - not only in that it presents only the Russian perspective (saying nothing of the North Korean position, and North Korea's approach to its relations with Russia), but it appears also to endorse an official Russian government line, particularly in the opening paragraph:
- Russia-North Korea relations are determined by Russia’s serious and legitimate strategic interests in Korea. The fundamental goal of the preservation of peace and stability on the Korean peninsula defines Russia’s policy toward Korea, and by extension its position on any settlement of the North Korean nuclear crisis. Russia stands firmly behind a peaceful resolution of the crisis, achieved through diplomacy and negotiation. (most strongly POV passages bolded by me) Aridd (talk) 15:17, 6 March 2008 (UTC)
