President Trump doubles down on his warning to North Korea saying, “all options are on the table.”
In a White House statement Tuesday, the president said threatening and destabilizing actions only increase North Korea’s isolation from all nations.
This comes after the rogue nation fired an intermediate range ballistic missile over Japan that landed in the Pacific Ocean.
Earlier this month, the president warned Pyongyang the U.S. military will unleash “fire and fury” if an attack is launched.
The U.S., Japan, and South Korea requested an emergency U.N. Security Council meeting.
Meanwhile, South Korea sent a powerful response to North Korea’s missile launch.
The country’s Air Force conducted a live fire drill involving powerful bombs Tuesday morning.
President Moon Jae-in ordered the strike as a display of the country’s ability to punish Pyongyang if it were to attack.
The country also threatened to exterminate North Korea’s leadership as annual joint-drills between South Korea and the U.S. continue.
Following the launch, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and South Korea’s foreign minister agreed to consider tougher sanctions against Pyongyang.
