Boris Johnson
My hon. Friend is very thoughtful on these matters. What we want is to freeze the North Korean nuclear programme, and diplomatic means are the best way forward.
Liz Twist (Blaydon) (Lab)
Sanctions imposed by the UN on North Korea, especially those of the past year, are the strongest yet. Can the Secretary of State tell us what steps the Government are taking to ensure that all those sanctions are fully implemented and, crucially, enforced by all UN member states?
Boris Johnson
We have raised that at the UN repeatedly over the past few weeks, as the hon. Lady would expect us to do.
