U.S. President Donald Trump said on Thursday a major conflict with North Korea is possible in the standoff over its nuclear and missile programs, but he would prefer a diplomatic outcome to the dispute.
"There is a chance that we could end up having a major, major conflict with North Korea. Absolutely," Trump told Reuters in an Oval Office interview ahead of his 100th day in office on Saturday.
Nonetheless, Trump said he wanted to peacefully resolve a crisis that has bedeviled multiple U.S. presidents, a path that he and his administration are emphasizing by preparing a variety of new economic sanctions while not taking the military option off the table.
"We'd love to solve things diplomatically but it's very difficult," he said.
Trump lavished praise on Chinese President Xi Jinping for Chinese assistance in trying to rein in North Korea. The two leaders met in Florida earlier this month.
"I believe he is trying very hard. He certainly doesn’t want to see turmoil and death. He doesn’t want to see it. He is a good man. He is a very good man and I got to know him very well.

Dad’s home, and he’s haggling — leave him alone to do his business.
Sooner or later he’ll have to take on Iran too.
Hopefully North Korea can be cleaned up in short order.
Obama left us a real mess.

She was so proud of herself. For no earthly reason...
I pretty much looking at anything being said is a diversion or distraction.And if indeed any reports are factual then they should be arrested immediately.This is dead serious.
Thanks for the ping.
As reported from the area (if it is), things sound rather dicey.
I’m sure Japan and South Korea aren’t any too pleased with North Korea’s (nuclear) saber rattling.
There’s nekkid ladies inside the caps ;-)
Hey it was just a photo-op for Bubba! Nice going, Bubba!
“Sooner or later he’ll have to take on Iran too.”
Oh, the Ron Paul alt rightists will have major coronary. Arteries will burst, blood will flow.
Psy-ops is right. Drudge did just meet with Trump.
I would hope they could see that we can’t let Iran have nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them to our nation.
North Korea and Iran are both rogue states.
I know where you are coming from. “:^)
North Korea is a hell hole for most of its unfortunate citizenry. Personally I hope diplomacy fails. Whatever the cost of overthrowing that evil regime is, the aftermath will be better in the long term.
Yes he did. Do you have an insight on that, to relate it to psy-ops?
Not trying to be argumentative...
“major major” sounds to me like action that would end up making South Korea an island, so Fatboi better watch his step.
Antiochus Epiphenes the half track not bright, all hell er hail.
