Donald Trump Warns China on North Korea: ‘We Will No Longer Allow This to Continue’

“I am very disappointed in China. Our foolish past leaders have allowed them to make hundreds of billions of dollars a year in trade, yet they do NOTHING for us with North Korea, just talk,” Mr. Trump wrote in a pair of posts on his Twitter account. “We will no longer allow this to continue. China could easily solve this problem!” 

On Friday, North Korea test-fired a ballistic missile that experts said put the continental U.S. in range of a strike, illustrating rapid advancements in technology and intensifying Pyongyang’s standoff with Washington. 

Following the launch, Secretary of State Rex Tillerson urged world leaders to tighten United Nations sanctions on North Korea and singled out Russia and China for not doing enough to contain Pyongyang’s nuclear ambitions.

DYI:  North Korea to establish nuclear and multistage intercontinental ballistic missile system requires technical assistance they do not have the educational nor manufacturing infrastructure to achieve these successes.  Simply put, this 3^rd world police state is incapable of feeding their people or keeping the lights on do not have this capability.  Trump is correct China can stop this – North Korea is China’s client state – highly likely where the technical and manufacturing help is coming from.  Don’t bet on Russia for a second all of the trade and military agreements between the Motherland and Middle Kingdom is pure pragmatism.  At best of times these two cultures are economic competitors and worst outright adversaries extending back over 500 plus years.  Those missiles could very easily be re-targeted to strike Volgograd or Moscow at a moments notice.  This is further movement towards world war with the principal players lining up:

Allies:

U.S., U.K., NATO, India, South Korea, Japan, Russia, Iran – Christians, Hindus and Shiite Muslims.

Axis Powers:

China, Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Turkey, remaining Sunni Muslim countries – Buddhism and Sunni Muslims.

China is the hot head who believe that war is their destiny with the U.S. and her principal allies.
