The North Korean regime would be "utterly destroyed" if it came to war, Haley told the council while demanding that China cut off oil deliveries to Pyongyang. Haley said Trump had called Chinese President Xi Jinping and urged him to take "a pivotal step" by cutting oil, warning that, if not, the US could take the oil situation "into our own hands." "If war comes, make no mistake: The North Korean regime will be utterly destroyed," said Haley, adding that it was a conflict the US was not seeking.

Digressing during a speech while visiting the US state of Missouri Wednesday, Trump described North Korea's Kim as a "sick puppy," adding to a series of rhetoric barbs between both of recent months.
