U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley said on Monday it was time for the U.N. Security Council to impose “the strongest possible measures” on North Korea over its sixth and largest nuclear test because “enough is enough.”

Haley told an emergency session of the Security Council that its incremental sanctions approach to North Korea since 2006 had not worked and that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un is “begging for war.”

“Despite our efforts the North Korea nuclear program is more advanced and more dangerous than ever,” Haley told the council. “War is never something the United States wants. We don’t want it now. But our country’s patience is not unlimited.”

The emergency session comes after North Korea detonated what it descried as a hydrogen bomb Sunday. It also comes less than a week after the council strongly condemned the North’s “outrageous” launch of a ballistic missile over Japan.

Other Security Council members, including Japan and France, are calling for further sanctions. The council already imposed its stiffest sanctions so far on North Korea last month.
