(China is widely seen as the nation most able to impose economic pain on North Korea such as targeting the oil that Pyongyang imports from China. But Beijing does not want to take actions that would destabilise the government in North Korea as it would potentially unleash chaos on its border.)At the UN Security Council meeting both China and Russia also reiterated calls to halt deployment of a US missile defence system in South Korea.
