Security Council in a bid to tighten the economic vice on impoverished North Korea after accusing it of torpedoing the ship. World | South Korea | North Korea The March sinking of the Cheonan corvette, killing 46 sailors, has sharply raised tensions on the Korean peninsula, rattled investors in South Korea and threatens to divide major powers in the economically powerful region. "The president will present frameworks of measures, one about our own steps and the other about measures through international cooperation ... He will also mention a plan to bring the case to the U.N. Security Council," presidential spokesman Lee Dong-kwan said. He said President Lee Myung-bak would address the issue in a speech on Monday, scheduled for 9 p.m. ET. In what is likely to further goad the prickly North, the spokesman said President Lee may mention North Korean leader Kim Jong-il by name in his speech. Pyongyang, which claims innocence, is already fuming after international investigators pointed the finger of blame at a North Korean submarine and said it is ready to go to war if South Korea retaliates. Seoul has made clear it will not launch any military strike and, because relations have almost frozen since Lee took office in 2008, has little left to punish North Korea apart from seeking more international economic sanctions. South Korea can be sure of a sympathetic hearing from permanent U.N. Security Council members the United States and Britain, both of which sent officials to help the investigation into the sinking. Much more difficult will to be to win over China, which effectively bankrolls North Korea's ruined economy and which has so far declined to be drawn on the question of blame over the sinking. Washington, struggling to keep its own relations with China on an even keel, has called for an "international response" to the sinking. It has yet to specify what that might mean. The issue is likely to overshadow a summit of leaders from China, Japan and South Korea later this month. "Japan has said it will cooperate with South Korea when deciding how it will act. So I think we will consider our action accordingly," Hidenobu Sobashima, deputy press secretary at the Foreign Ministry, told Reuters. North Korea already faces a series of U.N. sanctions for past nuclear and missile tests and which are sapping what little bounce is left in a crippled economy that can barely feed the population and has relied heavily on weapons exports to earn foreign currency. Analysts say that China is willing to prop up the North Korean government rather than risk the isolated state's implosion spilling across its border and may be unwilling to further sanction Pyongyang. (Writing by Jonathan Thatcher; Editing by Jeremy Laurence) World South Korea North Korea Comments See All Comments (2) | Post Comment May 23, 2010 7:03am EDT I feel this is wrong. Blatantly. How does money do anything about this? The only people that are going to suffer with more sanctions are the populace which has no power over the regime. Kim could give two rats buttocks if more of his people starve. His military will maintain through Russia and China which the West has no say whatsoever in, except for some PR dancing. So our answer to his military blowing up a navy ship is to starve his people which are already terrorized and have no clue what a normal life looks or feels like? Why would they ever rebel, they don’t believe there is anything better in this world but the life they’ve seen, mass brain washed by this lunatic. There is zero chance the people will rebel because Kim has no qualm in using live rounds to make examples very quickly. Us starving those that can’t do anything about it does nothing to stop this whatsoever, unless we want to push him to war when he’s getting near his death bed. Well, wake up call, we already have the excuse if we want it. We were attacked. avgprsn Report As Abusive May 23, 2010 7:06am EDT So the answer to Rwanda would have been to starve it’s people?
