That's what the US sees of course, but China represents 2/3rds - 4/5ths of their trade (and food imports) and has a much bigger say than we do (which has been the problem all along, the US and Japan yell and scream, but have very little financial impact on them (what good do US sanctions have if they never buy anything from us anyway?).
China in the meantime has quietly said "I don't think you should do this" to NK, and a month ago fired off a missile to take down "an obsolete weather satellite" They never threatened, they simply showed NK that their nuke would never leave their airspace intact and that coming to a sensible agreement was in their best interest.
