Pyongyang/Washington, Dec 23 (JEN): It's been a hot and cold week for Donald Trump at the United Nations, albeit he came out a happy man.
After a thrashing in the Jerusalem resolution, the US came out winner as the United Nations tightened sanctions on North Korea, prompting Trump to tweet, "The United Nations Security Council just voted 15-0 in favor of additional Sanctions on North Korea. The World wants Peace, not Death!"

According to the new sanctions:
Kim Jong-un's administration receives most help from Russia and China, who too backed US.
However, The Chinese Foreign Ministry has asked all sides to exercise restraint and make active efforts to ease tensions.
Rejoicing the verdict, Nikki Haley, US Ambassador to the UN, said that it is an "unambiguous message to Pyongyang that further defiance will invite further punishments and isolation".
If the past is anything to go by, one can expect Pyongyang to take swipe at the US.
