That means the White House could find itself revisiting topics from nuclear weapons to restarting food aid, suspended last March, sooner than it had planned. "North Korea is going to make them the most valuable bargaining chip as it can," says Kim Taewoo a North Korea expert at the Korea Institute For Defense Analysis.
