The US also stands to lose far more than North Korea if Mr Trump continues down this path. "If we do use it on North Korea, it will be a very sad day for North Korea".
The United Nations has "unequivocally" condemned the latest nuclear and missile tests by the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), denouncing them as "profoundly destabilising for regional and global security".
He further reiterated that as long as Washington is threatening Pyongyang with war and regime change, the Asian country has the right to stand its ground and not give up its nuclear weapons "having in mind what happened to Iraq and Libya". Trump has greatly exacerbated the risks through irresponsible taunts and threats of US military force that only give credibility to the North Korean propaganda line that nuclear weapons are necessary to deter USA aggression, and have spurred Kim Jong-un to accelerate his nuclear program.
President Trump has made pressuring China to "do more" on North Korea a priority. They typically entail complex negotiations not only between nations but within the USA government, with the Pentagon, the State Department and Congress all playing central roles.
South Korea is seeking to develop a ballistic "Frankenmissile" that would reach North Korea and be powerful enough to destroy the entire country alongside its underground military facilities and command centres, the Korea Herald reported.

"I believe that President Xi agrees with me 100 percent, " Trump told reporters". And if the Treasury Department wants to cut off Chinese companies doing business with the North, it would be wise to target a high-profile firm clearly violating sanctions that China itself has approved.
If you guessed that this is what most North Korea experts believe, then congratulations, you've got the pattern.
According to a report on Tuesday by 38 North, a North Korean affairs website run by the U.S. -Korea Institute at Johns Hopkins University's School of Advanced International Studies, satellite images of the Punggye-ri Nuclear Test Site, where the experiment was held, showed landslides and other disturbances that were more widespread than any of the five nuclear tests North Korea previously conducted. He doesn't want to see what's happening there, either. An exemption would be provided for North Korean individuals needed for the delivery of humanitarian assistance, on a case-by-case basis to be decided by the Security Council sanctions committee.
"North Korea's nuclear and missile development is at a new stage of grave and imminent threats", Onodera told Mattis, the ministry said, adding that his USA counterpart shared the view.
"Our commitment among the allies are ironclad", Mattis said.

Also yesterday, Russian President Vladimir Putin said after meeting his South Korean counterpart Moon Jae-in that resolving the North Korean nuclear crisis is impossible with sanctions and pressure alone.
The initial decision by Moon's predecessor Park Geun-hye to install Thaad led China to slap painful economic penalties on South Korea. In any event, such a move would be counterproductive, as the United States needs China's support in dealing with North Korea.
A prolonged halt in oil supplies could eventually bring the North Korean economy to its knees.
The UNSC reiterated that North Korea should fully comply with its worldwide obligations, including the Security Council Resolution 2371, which was adopted last month.
