North Korea is facing a new warning to change its behaviour or face more sanctions.
The threat was delivered by Canada's Foreign Affairs Minister Chyrstia Freeland as she opened today's summit on stability and security in the Korean Peninsula.
"Investing in nuclear weapons will lead only to more sanctions and to perpetual instability on the peninsula," Freeland said to a room full of diplomats and reporters in Vancouver.
"The pursuit of nuclearization will bring you neither security nor prosperity," she said.
The message was echoed by allies around the room, including U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, who is co-host of today's meeting.

"The threat was delivered by Canada's Foreign Affairs Minister Chyrstia Freeland as she opened today's summit on stability and security in the Korean Peninsula."
What threat? Sounds like a reasonable statement from a sensible country. Maybe
we're so used to Trump threatening everyone except Russia that we're ascribing the tendency to allies with actually-sane leaders!
