John Kerry actually said...

"I was pleased to see that last night in New York the Permanent Five Members of the U.N. Security Council agreed to speak with one voice and tell North Korea that its conduct is unacceptable."

"Above all, it means making clear to our allies that we will not accept a nuclear-armed North Korea and that we remain committed to our goal of complete denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula."

"But if he has a fundamentally new relationship with us, Japan and South Korea, that's a different story."

"We need a new strategy, one that focuses sharply on the aim of reducing North Korea's leverage while adding to our own."
