White House Press Secretary Jay Carney delivered the Obama Administration's message to North Korea via his appearance on CNN Tuesday on "The Situation Room":
WOLF BLITZER: If they're watching you in North Korea right now, and I know personally that they do get CNN International in North Korea, what message would the president have to share with the leaders of North Korea right now?
JAY CARNEY: That it is in the interests of North Korea, in the interest of the people of that country that there be stability on the Korean peninsula. And it is in the interest of the people of North Korea that the regime fulfill its international obligations, and cease pursuing the nuclear weapons, and cease violations of its obligations regarding missile development and testing. If it chooses that path, North Korea will have an opportunity to rejoin the community of nations, and to increase economic development and opportunity in its country. But the obligations are what they are, and the United States is not alone, the United States is a part of a broad international consensus with regard to what North Korea must do in order to get right with the world.
