Paul Shinkman, US News - The U.S. government is not considering any changes to ongoing military exercises it conducts on and around the Korean Peninsula with its allies, officials say, despite Chinese assertions that a so-called "freeze for freeze" agreement involving both sides' limiting military action could prompt North Korea to discontinue its provocative nuclear weapons tests.
The Chinese proposal, known also as a "double freeze" or "double suspension," could be the most promising diplomatic course amid unprecedented tensions in recent months, according to some analysts, though it remains unclear the extent to which China holds any influence over Pyongyang.
