“Strong” sanctions should follow next N. Korean nuclear, ICBM test: Moon

President Moon says Chinese pressure on DPRK has produced "no tangible results as of yet"

South Korean President Moon Jae-in has said that a sixth nuclear or Inter-Continental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) test by North Korea must be responded to with "strong" sanctions, speaking to Reuters on Thursday at the Blue House.

Saying that an ICBM test could happen "in the not too distant future," Moon also called on China to do more to reign in Pyongyang's rapidly progressing missile and nuclear programs.
