North Korea detonated its sixth and most powerful nuclear bomb on Sunday, and South Korea has said Kim Jong Un’s regime may be planning to launch another intercontinental ballistic missile on Saturday. US President Donald Trump’s administration is pushing the UN Security Council to ban oil sales to North Korea in a fresh bid to pressure Kim. He declined to say whether he’d accept a nuclear-armed North Korea that can be successfully deterred from using atomic weapons. NK Pro is a US subscription-based website that provides analysis on North Korea. But China and Russia, both of which have veto power in the Security Council, have indicated resistance to imposing more sanctions.
