Major sanctions coming against North Korea, China must 'press all levers' to influence Kim: Trump
Trump for major sanctions against North Korea
President Trump tweeted saying he spoke to Chinese President Xi on North Korea's "provocative actions", adding that "major sanctions will be imposed on the country".
As North Korea test-fired an intercontinental ballistic missile on Wednesday, US President Trump said his administration will impose major sanctions against Kim Jong-un's regime.
Earlier in the day, North Korea test-fired an intercontinental ballistic missile as the Korean peninsula slipped into a major crisis mode on Wednesday morning with South Korea and Japan terming the missile tests as a "violent" and "reckless" act.
President Trump tweeted saying he spoke to Chinese President Xi on North Korea's "provocative actions", adding that "major sanctions will be imposed on the country".
"This situation will be handled!," the USpresident added in his tweet.
Trump during his call with Xi asked the Chinese leader to use "all available levers" to press North Korea.
