Trump: I’m Calling on China and Your Great President to Work on North Korea ‘Very Hard’

‘In order to achieve prosperity, we must also have security’

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
TRUMP: "In order to achieve prosperity, we must also have security. Security cooperation is critical to addressing a range of emerging threats throughout the indo-pacific region. And around the world, and I’ve been very encouraged by my conversations both over the last number of weeks and in particular last night and this morning. With president XI. We are very, very much on the same plane when it comes to security. We both want it for our countries, and we both wanted for the world. Chief among these threats is the North Korean nuclear menace. As I stated in my address to the national assembly in Seoul yesterday, the United States is committed to the complete and permanent denuclearization of North Korea. So important. China can fix this problem easily and quickly, and I’m calling on China in your great president to hopefully work on it very hard. I know one thing about your president. If he works on it hard, it will happen. There is no doubt about it. They know."
