If that strongly worded statement doesn't make NK change its ways, we'll have to follow up with an even MORE strongly worded statement after their next missle test. It must be tough for them to be on the receiving end of all of this hand-wringing and diplomacy.
One thing that I'm sure would work in this situation --- and which I'm sure we won't do --- is a huge tarriff on Chinese imports.
Leave the tarriff on until China solves the NK problem. Then, China will solve the problem, after which, we remove the tarriff, and Walmart sales resume.

Fang [terrified]: The...Strongly Worded Statement?
[Biggles brings in a strongly worded statement -- a really strong one]
Ximinez: So you think you are strong because you can survive the multi-party negotiations. Well, we shall see. Biggles! Hand her the strongly worded statement!
