CHINA needs to feel the ‘PAIN’ to STOP Kim Jong-un’s nuclear program<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

NORTH KOREA\u2019s nuclear program can come to an end but China needs to \u201cfeel the pain\u201d to stop the country ignoring UN sanctions and trading with Kim Jong-un\u2019s regime.<\/span><\/p>\n

North Korea can be stopped but secondary sanctions are needed against its neighbour China to stop the country breaking UN sanctions, former Special Forces officer Lt. Col. Michael Waltz has warned.<\/span><\/p>\n

Speaking to Fox News, he said: \u201cOne, I\u2019m glad he called him out on the behaviour, it needs to be done.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cBut two, I think really the next step is additional what we call secondary sanctions which are sanctions not against the North Koreans but against the Chinese entities, the banks, the oil and gas, the food stuff, the shipping industry that are continuing to do business behind the scenes with North Korea.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

US officials released images which claim to show Chinese tankers transferring fuel to North Korean ships 30 times in just three months despite UN sanctions preventing countries from trading with Kim Jong-un\u2019s regime.<\/span><\/p>\n

The former Senior Advisor and Policy Director for South Asia and Counterterrorism for the Pentagon said countries around the world need to be brought on board to make China \u201cfeel the pain\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said: \u201cWe sanction them and we bring our European allies, the Australians, the East Asians, others onboard to basically start having the Chinese feel the pain.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The revelations that China had breached the sanctions has sparked anger in South Korea, which has repeatedly urged China to cut ties with Kim Jong-un’s hermit kingdom.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tensions in the region have soared this year, leading to fears Kim’s provocative nuclear and missile tests could spark World War 3.<\/span><\/p>\n

The country\u2019s nuclear program will not be stopped by economic sanctions, an expert has warned.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dr Andy Jackson, a Monash University professor, said the sanctions imposed by the UN are not impacting North Korea as hoped.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dr Jackson said: \u201cThey don\u2019t seem to be impacting the areas that Washington wants them to impact \u2013 the elites and the military. If anything these oil supplies that get through to the north are going to be diverted to the military.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a significant amount of research going into economic sanctions which suggest that actually as more official trade is blocked by economic sanctions, the amount of cross-border unofficial trade actually increases.\u201da<\/span><\/p>\n
