SEOUL: South Korean President Moon Jae-In called for the “strongest punishment” against North Korea, including new United Nations sanctions, after Pyongyang said it successfully tested a hydrogen bomb Sunday.
Moon called for “all diplomatic measures including UNSC sanctions resolutions to completely isolate North Korea,” presidential security adviser Chung Eui-Yong said after an emergency National Security Council meeting.
The South would discuss deploying “the strongest strategic assets of the US military,” he cited Moon as saying — potentially a reference to tactical nuclear weapons which were withdrawn by Washington in 1991.
