Trump says 'only one thing will work' to solve the North Korea crisis

US President Donald Trump said in two tweets on Saturday that "only one thing will work" to solve the North Korea crisis, although did not explicitly specific what that would be.

"Presidents and their administrations have been talking to North Korea for 25 years, agreements made and massive amounts of money paid......," the president said in the first tweet.

"...hasn't worked, agreements violated before the ink was dry, makings fools of U.S. negotiators. Sorry, but only one thing will work!" he continued in the second.

The North Korea conflict rapidly escalated in recent weeks. The rogue nation fired a missile over Japan a few weeks ago for the second time in two months.

Trump ramped up his rhetoric against the regime when the United Nations General Assembly convened on September 23, saying that "rocket man" Kim Jong Un was on a "suicide mission," and that if he did not back down, the US would "have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea."

Kim responded by saying he would "surely and definitely tame the mentally deranged US dotard with fire." North Korea's foreign minister also said that Trump's comments made the possibility of a missile attackon the US mainland "all the more inevitable."
