A Korean Helsinki Process?
Last month, North and South Korea narrowly avoided a catastrophic military confrontation. If efforts are not made to limit North Korea's provocations – specifically, by deepening its economic and social ties with the outside world – another standoff will be only a matter of time, and it may not end as well as the last one.

SEOUL – Last month, North and South Korea narrowly avoided a catastrophic military confrontation. After 40 hours of strenuous negotiations, the South agreed to stop loudspeaker broadcasts into the demilitarized zone between the two countries, in exchange for the North expressing “regret” for the South Korean soldiers killed by a landmine blast in the DMZ three weeks earlier.
