"We are not committed to a peaceful solution, we are committed to a solution to this problem. Of course we want a peaceful solution, but as President Donald Trump said, all options are on the table. We are prepared, if necessary, to force North Korea to denuclearize without the cooperation of this administration," the official told the BBC.

“The likelihood of war could be more or less depending on what we decide to do,” General McMaster added. General McMaster also criticized North Korea for its continued missile and nuclear tests, calling the Northeast Asian country a “serious threat.”

Earlier, on Twitter, President Trump affirmed that the North Korean leader “will not be in office long”. This statement has been interpreted as a declaration of war against Pyongyang./.
