Those are two VERY different things. Negotiations are not the same as war. When countries negotiate, national interests are involved. So when we have a negotiation with N. Korea with the help of China, China will negotiate from its interests, it could care less of our country. So the best would be a direct link between us and N. Korea, so only the iterest of the two conflicting parties is discussed.
As for Iraq, of course it would not be good to let other nations get involved, since they would want a piece of the pie also. But all it matters to us are American deaths, so interests automatically are out of the game. I would not welcome other countries in Iraq, since next thing and they will be telling us what to do there, but American lifes are stakes.
