The tweet was in response to North Korea's sixth nuclear test, considered its strongest, in which the country said it tested a Hydrogen Bomb.
Trump's threat is expected to affect China, one of North Korea's closest ally.

Meanwhile, it was reported that North Korea is planning to launch an Inter Continental Ballistic Missile (ICBM).
