President Trump wants Congress and international partners to target North Korea with new sanctions and moves to isolate the regime internationally, his team told senators Wednesday.

“The president’s approach aims to pressure North Korea into dismantling its nuclear, ballistic missile, and proliferation programs by tightening economic sanctions and pursuing diplomatic measures with our allies and regional partners,” Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, Defense Secretary Jim Mattis and Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats said following a special briefing of the full Senate at the White House.
