Best Answer

Red China is and was the only country that borders North Korea. China is an important trading partner to North Korea. They can make life very uncomfortable, economically for the North Koreans.

Militarily, if China were to invade or otherwise attack North Korea, it is doubtful that any Western Power would do anything about it.
