A fresh warning has been issued by US President Donald Trump to North Korea on Monday, saying the time for “strategic patience” is over. He spoke in Japan after winning Japan’s backing for his policy of considering all options to rein in the rogue state.
Trump described the North’s nuclear programme as “a threat to the civilised world and international peace and stability” on the second day of his Asia tour dominated by the crisis.
He had signalled in the past that Washington could look beyond a diplomatic solution to the North’s nuclear weapons ambitions and consider military intervention. “The era of strategic patience is over,” he declared alongside his host, Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
