...before Pyongyang and Washington were sniping at each other over the details. North Korea declared that the U.S. "should not even dream" that it would dismantle its nuclear programs before receiving a new plant. But for the first time since the U.S. accused North Korea of breaking a 1994 accord freezing its nuclear weapons program three years ago, there is some hope that the standoff on the Korean peninsula can be resolved. "We have an agreement," Hill told reporters later that day. "It wasn't easy, but I think important things don't come easily, and I think...

European retailers, increasingly dependent on China as the key source for clothing, never liked the accord. But their disquiet has turned to fury. Big chains including Britain's Next, Germany's Metro and Sweden's H&M complain about not receiving their fall and Christmas stocks. "Textile retailers are looking at empty shelves," warned the Foreign Trade Association, a Brussels-based group that represents E.U. retailers...
