The British Prime Minister described the behaviour of Kim Jong-un's secretive regime as “outrageous” this week after it fired a missile over northern Japan.

During her visit to Japan, she singled out China as having a vital part to play in persuading Kim Jong-Un to abandon plans for more strikes.

She said: “What I want to do is work with our international partners and I will have obviously the opportunity here in Japan to talk to Prime Minister Abe about these tests that North Korea has been carrying out and how we can work together and with others internationally to put pressure on North Korea to stop.
