CNN The Lead With Jake Tapper January 7, 2016 21:20:00

special emergency meeting yesterday of the u.n. to consider international responses and sanctions against the north. and we're certainly not going to take off the table any unilateral opportunities to hold them to account. so what i can tell you is we look forward to working with members of congress. >> beyond possible sanctions, beyond u.n. condemnation, is there an obama administration strategy to stop north korea from developing nuclear weapons and missiles? >> i think, look, there's been a concerted effort and strategy here to deal with the real problem of north korea. and it's on many fronts. we believe that diplomatically the best forum to discuss this and to move forward is six-party talks. we are willing and perfectly willing to return to those talks, the north is not. they've done nothing and certainly this test on the 6th proves they're not willing to return to the table to have talks with the international community to get to a verifiable and irreversible denuclearization of the peninsula. that's on the diplomatic side. the military side you know well,
