President Donald Trump has made trade central to his presidency, roiling markets and upsetting fellow Republicans by threatening to impose steep tariffs and scrap trade deals he says have undermined US workers and industry.

Wasington, 7 Shawwal 1438/1 July 2017 (MINA) – President Donald Trump warned Friday the U.S. patience with North Korea’s “reckless and brutal regime” has run out.

“The era of strategic patience with the North Korean regime has failed,” Trump was quoted by Anadolu Agency as saing in prepared remarks in the Rose Garden while standing alongside his South Korean counterpart.

“Frankly, that patience is over.”

South Korean President Moon Jae-in visit follows the death of a U.S. citizen shortly after he was released in a coma from North Korean captivity.

Moon, who has been more dovish than his predecessors on the issue of the North, nonetheless echoed Trump, promising a “stern response” to any further provocations.

He vowed to “strengthen” the U.S.-South Korea alliance.

Pyongyang views American engagement on the Korean Peninsula — including the presence of 30,000 troops — as a signal Washington is preparing to reignite the 1950-53 Korean War.

During his remarks in the Rose Garden, Trump called on the international community to back additional sanctions to thwart the North’s nuclear and ballistic missile programs, which run afoul of UN regulations.

“Our goal is peace, stability and prosperity for the region. But the United States will defend itself — always will defend itself. Always. And we will always defend our allies,” he said.

But the leaders were not always on the same page.
