quote:

“There are countries that are allowing, even encouraging, trade with North Korea, in violation of U.N. Security Council resolutions. Such countries would also like to continue their trade arrangements with the United States, that’s not gonna happen. Our attitude on trade changes when countries do not take international security threats seriously.”


quote:

We will not look exclusively at North Korea, we will look at any country that continues to do business with this outlaw regime. We will not have patience for stalling or talking our way down to a watered-down resolution. Yesterday’s ICBM escalation requires an escalated diplomatic and economic response. Time is short; action is required; the world is on notice.

If we act together we can still prevent a catastrophe and we can rid the world of a grave threat. If we fail to act in a serious way there will be a different response. Much of the burden of enforcing U.N. sanctions rests with China. 90% of trade with North Korea is from China. We will work with China; we will work with any and every country that believes in peace, but we will not repeat the inadequate approaches of the past that have brought us to this dark day.




quote:

In the final analysis, China will either take action to remove the North Korean threat, or the United States will collapse the economy of China with the biggest set of economic actions against China in the history of economic sanctions.

v Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley will establish and highlight the action of the enablers.

v U.S. Ambassador to China Terry Branstad will politely request China to stop enabling and take action.

At the G20 – President Trump will politely ask Xi Jinping not to put him in a position of destroying the Chinese economy. Trump will remind Xi Jinping he really doesn’t want to, but he is being left no option.

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, Commerce Secretary Wilbur Ross, U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer, and Agriculture Secretary Sonny Perdue are the atomic economic sledgehammer…. awaiting orders.

But I thought China controls so much of our debt that they would be able to cripple US financially? Hmm...more lies?

I admire Trump & Co for talking a big game re China but we all know the Chinese have our balls in a vice. Trump is not in a position to "destroy the Chinese economy"

It's so nice to have a foreign policy that is not the "step and fetch it" if the last 8 years.

Yes! I'm sure a little more economic and diplomatic isolation is EXACTLY what North Korea needs to turn around!
