The Hill: U.S. officials pressed China to get tougher with North Korea during high-level meetings in Washington on Wednesday involving Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and Defense Secretary James Mattis.
Tillerson said the United States “reiterated to China that they have a diplomatic responsibility to exert much greater economic and diplomatic pressure on the regime if they want to prevent further escalation in the region.”
Both also highlighted the danger posed by North Korea, which Tillerson said was the “most acute threat in the region today.”
