Reuters: China calls for constructive efforts to ease Korean tensions
BEIJING (Reuters) - China called on Monday for all countries to make constructive efforts to ease tension after North Korea said the latest U.N. sanctions against it are an act of war and tantamount to a complete economic blockade.
The U.N. Security Council unanimously imposed new sanctions on North Korea on Friday for its recent intercontinental ballistic missile test, seeking to limit its access to refined petroleum products and crude oil and its earnings from workers abroad.
The U.S.-drafted resolution also caps crude oil supplies to North Korea at 4 million barrels a year and commits the Council to further reductions if it were to conduct another nuclear test or launch another intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM).
North Korea on Sunday rejected the resolution, calling it an act of war.

And I mean pyhsically able
Internationally North Korea has alot to offer to the world. Where we as a species are with our self imposed limitations we can use North Korea's status as a rogue state to undergo innovation and human advancement we have as a collective banned in our own Nations. End of the day we can't say they have nothing to offer the world, and use it as a pretense for war.
