In a news conference, Mr. Kerry suggested that the United States could remove some newly enhanced missile defenses in the region, though he did not specify which ones. Any eventual cutback would address Chinese concerns about the buildup of American weapons systems in the region.

The question is how much US must yield to China to get cooperation.

Another paragraph from article:

The United States "keeps sending more fighter bombers and missile defense ships to the waters of East Asia and carrying out massive military drills with Asian allies in a dramatic display of pre-emptive power," the state-run news agency Xinhua said Saturday.

Yes, but it appears that yungun's recent threats could be a ploy sponsored by China to get concessions from US.

Cutback american weapons in the region? Yeah sure, it doesn't take much time for boomers to visit SK again. If Chinese are smart then they won't fall for Kerry. But then again USA can get things done by hook or crook.

nothing much China can help, Jim waiting for Obama's call, talking NBA/basketball and then they can talk others.

It's of vital importance for both the USA and China to clarify / figure out what that "Piovt to Asia" implies. Not doubt young Kim perceives there's mutual suspicion in between over this.

Otherwise it's hollow to chant "common interest".
