Trump accuses Russia of violating sanctions to aid North Korea
The Guardian ^ | 1/17/2018

Donald Trump has said that Russia is helping North Korea get supplies in violation of international sanctions and that Pyongyang is getting “closer every day” to being able to deliver a long-range missile to the United States.

“Russia is not helping us at all with North Korea,” Trump said during an Oval Office interview with Reuters. “What China is helping us with, Russia is denting. In other words, Russia is making up for some of what China is doing.”

well it is now time to preemptively destroy their nukes before they attack us and get off this reliance on third parties because it doesn’t work and we are talking millions of American lives. Why are we shivering in fear?

The case for a first strike is being made. The ‘false alarms’ in HI and Japan also build public support, at least in those areas.

Buckle up!

To a great extent Russia does in N Korea what China tells it to.

Trump praised China for its efforts to restrict oil and coal supplies to North Korea but said Beijing could do much more to help constrain Pyongyang.

But he said Russia appears to be filling in the gaps left by the Chinese.

What about those new missiles? I'd worry about who's helping them with that.

Russia does not dance on China’s strings.

Yes.

But they didn’t wait a half and hour to let the people know like in Hawaii.
