North Korea fired a ballistic missile Sunday in defiance of calls to rein in its weapons program and days after a new leader in its old rival South Korea came to power pledging to engage it in dialogue.
North Korea is vassal of the CCP, and all democratic nations should back Taiwan's efforts toward constitutional change to achieve greater democracy and freedom. This would attract China's 1.4 billion people to seek democratization of the CCP and pressure North Korea to opt for democracy as well, and world peace would be at hand. Democracies the world over support Taiwan as a beacon for democracy in Asia, lighting the way to peaceful development for China. See the Charter for Permanent Peace and Development for more.
