Trump on North Korea: 'Major, Major Conflict' Is Possible

With tensions already high between the United States and North Korea, President Trump warned that a “major, major conflict” is possible.

"There is a chance that we could end up having a major, major conflict with North Korea. Absolutely," Trump said in an interview with Reuters.

"We'd love to solve things diplomatically but it's very difficult," he added.

Tensions rose between the U.S. and North Korea earlier this month when the U.S. announced that it would send a Navy strike group into the west Pacific near the Korean Peninsula amid increasing concern over the reclusive regime's nuclear weapons program. 

North Korea quickly denounced the naval movement as an act of aggression and threatened a nuclear strike on the U.S. if provoked. Since then, the two countries have hurled sweeping declarations at each other over North Korea's nuclear capabilities, while military signals have put U.S. allies in the region on high alert. 

Trump also spoke highly of Chinese President Xi Jinping for his efforts in the region. 

"I believe he is trying very hard. He certainly doesn’t want to see turmoil and death," Trump said. "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."
