Markey: 'Trump is gambling with possible nuclear war'

Massachusetts Senator Ed Markey said that “President Trump is gambling with possible nuclear war” during a news conference on North Korea Sunday.

On Saturday, North Korea fired a test-missile. However, for the third time this month, it ended in failure.
Still, it was a clear message of defiance from Pyongyang.

“When he doubles down on threats of a major, major conflict with North Korea. We don't need tough talk from president rump. We need tough diplomacy,” said Markey.

President Donald Trump says he believes china's president is also putting pressure on North Korea to stop launching missiles and building a nuclear weapons program.

When asked about military action in the case of another missile test, Trump said he’d have to wait and see.
