America does not seek conflict or confrontation, but we will never run from it

US President Donald Trump declared Wednesday that he will not "allow American cities to be threatened with destruction" by nuclear-armed North Korea.

"America does not seek conflict or confrontation, but we will never run from it," Trump said in an address to South Korea's parliament.

"We will not permit America or our allies to be blackmailed or attacked," he added.
