U.S. National Security Advisor John Bolton has revealed that President Trump would be "pretty disappointed" if North Korea decides to launch a new rocket,... or carries out a missile test.
The remarks come as satellite images suggest Pyeongyang is continuing work on its missile testing sites.

Speaking to ABC's This Week, regarding reports North Korea is continuing work on its missile testing site,... U.S. National Security Advisor John Bolton said "there's a lot of activity all the time in North Korea" and that "nothing in the proliferation game surprises" him anymore.
Bolton added that President Trump would be (quote) "pretty disappointed" if North Korean leader Kim Jong-un broke his promise and went ahead with missile launches.

"Well, as the president said, he'd be pretty disappointed if Kim Jong Un went ahead and did something like that. The president said repeatedly that he feels the absence of nuclear tests, the absence of ballistic missile launches is a positive sign and he's used that, really, as part of his effort to persuade Kim Jong Un that he has to go for what the president called 'the big deal' - complete denuclearization."

Last Friday, President Trump told reporters that his relationship with the North Korean leader was still "a very good one",... and added he would be "surprised in a negative way if he did anything that was not per" their understanding.
However, Bolton struck a more cautious tone,... saying one mistake previous U.S. administrations made was assuming North Korea would comply when "they undertake obligations".
Bolton told ABC he was not aware of any contact between North Korea and the U.S. since the Hanoi Summit,... but said it's possible South Korea has spoken to the North. Bolton said he plans to discuss the reports of activity in the North with South Korea in the near future.
