#1  North Korea has basically given SecState Jaaawhn Kerry "the Finger/Bird" + is demanding formal recognition as a "Nuclear/Nuclear-armed" State.

As for China, its steady escalation toward a Mil Conflict wid Japan [US?]continues as there are MilBlog Repors that China has dispatched at least two PLAN destroyers to back up in rear these 8 CMS-SOA ships already there, + allegedly also at least one Submarine.

"Mahanist" China wants territorial concessions - while the US + Japan see only the Senkakus dispute [China = Diaoyus] as the point of friction, CHINA SEES THE SENKAKUS/DIAOYUS + OKINAWA [Okinawa proper = Ryukyus, + rest of Okinawa Archipelago].

As per INDIA, the PLA has allegedly sent troops on Beijing-approved, non-MWR "campout" in LADAKH [LAC], + into former TAIJIKISTAN territory which was turned over to China in return for the latter's writeoff/payoff of local Taijik debt.
