China has said ‘Military force cannot resolve the issue’ in North Korea in an apparent message to the United States as Donald Trump has put Kim Jong-Un on notice.

(Washington, DC) Military force cannot resolve tension over North Korea, China said on Thursday, while an influential Chinese newspaper urged the North to halt its nuclear programme in exchange for Chinese protection.

With a U.S. aircraft carrier group steaming to the area and tension rising, South Korea said it believed the United States would consult it before any pre-emptive strike against the North.

"Military force cannot resolve the issue," Chinese Foreign Minister Wang Yi told reporters in Beijing.

"Amid challenge there is opportunity. Amid tensions we will also find a kind of opportunity to return to talks."

While U.S. President Donald Trump has put North Korea on notice that he would not tolerate any provocation, U.S. officials have said his administration was focusing its strategy on tougher economic sanctions.

Trump has diverted the USS Carl Vinson aircraft carrier group towards the Korean peninsula, which could take more than a week to arrive, in a show of force aimed at deterring North Korea from conducting another nuclear test or launching more missiles to coincide with important events and anniversaries.

"Whoever provokes the situation, whoever continues to make trouble in this place, they will have to assume historical responsibility," Wang said.

South Korean Foreign Minister Yun Byung-se told parliament in Seoul he believed Washington would consult Seoul if it was considering a pre-emptive strike. The United States has about 28,500 troops in South Korea.

A Washington-based think-tank that monitors North Korea, 38 North, said satellite images on Wednesday showed activity around the North's Punggye-ri nuclear test site on the east coast that indicated it was ready for a new test.

South Korean officials said there were no new signs to indicate a test was more likely, although they also said the North appeared ready to conduct a test at any time.

An influential state-backed Chinese newspaper said the best option for North Korea and its leader, Kim Jong Un, was to give up its nuclear programme, and China would protect it if it did.

"As soon as North Korea complies with China's declared advice and suspends nuclear activities ... China will actively work to protect the security of a denuclearised North Korean nation and regime," said an editorial in the Global Times, which is published by the Communist party's People's Daily.

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe underscored fears about threats from North Korea, telling parliament in Tokyo that Pyongyang could have the capacity to deliver missiles equipped with sarin nerve gas.

A senior Japanese diplomat said the United States was putting "maximum pressure" on North Korea to resolve issues peacefully while putting responsibility on China to sway its old ally.

"We will watch what action China takes," the diplomat said.

While Japan did not see a high risk of military action, it expected to be consulted by the United States if it decided to attack. North Korea has about 350 missiles that can hit Japan.

The Chi-Coms are reaping what they have sown since 1953. They have used North Korea as a buffer on the Korean peninsula to keep the West from putting military bases along the Yalu River. Their greatest fear right now is war and defeat of North Korea, with subsequent reunification of Korea. In addition, a defeat in North Korea would stir up the Chinese people and they would seriously question living life under Communist rule.

I'm more than a little aggravated that no U.S. president has called for the end of communist rule in China and called for a free and open election in China.

Better be careful.

Denizens here are suspicious of anyone posting geo/political thinking.

You remind me what a friend told me long ago, he and his crew use to fly up and down the Yalu, immediately after WWII. Spying on everyone. They flew low level and the Chinese would fire at them with small arms, in frustration.

Incomplete sentence correction: "... suspicious of anyone posting geo/political thinking who skippers over questions without answering even geo/political ones relevant to America's internal strategics."
