Using the military option sooner is less risky and less costly than giving North Korea more time to advance its nuclear capabilities, former U.S. Ambassador to the U.N. John Bolton told Fox News on Tuesday.
Bolton was reacting after President Donald Trump warned Kim Jong Un's regime "all options are in the table" Tuesday after North Korea fired a ballistic missile designed to carry a nuclear payload over Japan.
The former ambassador said Pyongyang's action was "as clear a demonstration as you're going to get without actually hitting American or Japanese or South Korean territory what this regime has in mind."
He added "I think there's no misunderstanding in Japan, South Korea or – I hope – in the United States how grave this threat is," pointing out South Korea conducted a live-fire drill near the demilitarized zone in response to North Korea's missile launch.
