At the same time trump has expressed hope that the necessity of a military response to the DPRK’s actions will not occur. He called on all member States of the UN to conduct joint policy in isolation, Kim Jong-UN as long as he did not stop their “hostile” behavior.
In turn, the U.S. permanent representative to the UN, Nikki Haley on Monday in an interview with CNN said that Washington exhausted the possibilities to resolve the North Korean problem in the UN. The diplomat suggested the resolution of the conflict in the hands of the Pentagon. She recalled that from the moment when trump promised to respond to the DPRK “fire and fury”, Pyongyang had to spend a few new missile tests, including hydrogen bomb, and has threatened to attack an American military base in the Pacific ocean on the island of GUAM. North Korea’s behavior is still irresponsible, said Haley. “Although no one wants war,” she added.
Pentagon chief James Mattis, in turn, on the eve of trump’s speech in the UN said that sanctions and diplomatic measures against North Korea while working efficiently. He added that while Washington or to any of American allies, Pyongyang will not threaten directly the US will not shoot down North Korean missiles or resort to military measures to resolve the conflict.
