FACT: China, Russia is supporting North Korea despite sanctions

ANALYSIS: North Korea would fall without oil support

But what do you expect from dicatorships in China and Russia. It's a good thing we already are sanctioning Russia, and we're starting to impose tariffs on China (solar panels, washing machines, soon steel and aluminum) and fines on China (forced tech transfers from US companies to Chinese government). China is starting to falter economically, with labor cost rising, middle income trap, massive debt, capital outflow, factories moving out of China to SEA or back to the states. We need to put more pressure on China, or else North Korea will be the puppet that sends a nuclear missile straight into Silicon Valley

What? What is the logic behind this conclusion?

Pressure on China -> China stops supporting North Korea -> North Korea collapses
