...timing of the incident, given the delicate juncture of the outside world's diplomatic engagement with Pyongyang, could hardly have been worse. South Korean President Lee Myung Bak learned of Park's murder just 90 minutes before he was scheduled to give a speech setting out a new course for North-South relations - in effect abandoning the harder line he had come to office preaching.

...will be made even more difficult by the rage Park's murder at Mount Geumgang has stoked in the South. Hill and others in the six-party talks have been steadfast in not letting any outside issue get in the way of a deal on the North's nukes.

Suspicions of a state raid on BP's Russian assets aren't surprising. Relations between the countries, already chilled by Britain's refusal to expel various critics of Russia's government, have been in a deep freeze since the murder of former Russian spy Alexander Litvinenko in London in 2006. Still, in the case of TNK-BP, it's hard to make out a government agenda.
