"President Trump used his address today to threaten North Korea with complete destruction instead of offering real solutions and uniting the international community behind them," he said in a statement. "The United States should be building an international consensus to engage Pyongyang in direct negotiations, use sanctions to close North Korea for business and peacefully freeze and eventually roll back North Korea's ballistic missile and nuclear programs."
