'Time for talk is over': US grapples for new approach on North Korea
Hong Kong (CNN)North
Korea's test of a long-range missile that could hit major US cities has
drawn condemnation from the US, China, Japan and South Korea, and calls
for a rethink in tactics toward Pyongyang, given the dramatic
escalation in its capabilities.
US ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley late Sunday dismissed claims Washington was seeking UN Security Council action, as it has done following previous tests, pointing out North Korea "is already subject to numerous Security Council resolutions that they violate with impunity."
"The time for talk is over," Haley said, and instead pointed to China,
saying Beijing "must decide if it is finally willing to take this vital
step" of challenging Pyongyang, a point that echoed US President Donald
Trump Saturday, who said he was "very disappointed in China."
"Our
foolish past leaders have allowed (Beijing) to make hundreds of
billions of dollars a year in trade, yet they do NOTHING for us with
North Korea, just talk," Trump tweeted.
On
Monday, Trump spoke to his Japanese counterpart Shinzo Abe, committing
to increase diplomatic and economic pressure on North Korea.
In other developments over the weekend:
- The US said it conducted a successful test of the Alaska-based THAAD missile defense and sent two B-1 bombers from Guam on a 10-hour round trip over the Korean Peninsula
- US Vice President Mike Pence said "all options are on the table" when it comes to North Korea
- China unveiled a new long-range missile at a huge military parade
Friday's test was deemed more advanced than
the intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) launched on July 4 and
marks a big step forward from a country once deemed incapable of putting
forward a serious ICBM program.
