You can bet on that” Trump said sitting alongside Abe in a bilateral meeting ahead of a Group of Seven summit. 

North Korea’s growing nuclear and missile threat is seen as a major security challenge for Trump, who has vowed to prevent the country from being able to hit the United State with a nuclear missile, capacity experts say   Pyongyang could have some time after 2020.
