North Korea wants a peace treaty[*1] :
The Korea Times notes that, despite North Korea’s insistence on a peace treaty, it has tried to exclude South Korea from peace talks in the past on the grounds that South Korea did not sign the 1953 armistice treaty. That treaty was signed by North Korea, China, and the US-led United Nations Command.
