What are some of the major issues in world politics right now?

North Korea once again escalated tensions on the Korean Peninsula when it went ahead with its sixth nuclear test on September 3. 
Despite the international community's warnings as well as nuclear tests, North Korea fired five missiles, making the world angry. The whole world is in a nuclear war crisis. Amid this situation, the U.S. President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un had stronger verbal battles against each other. There was a rancor of criticism against each other. In response, President Trump said in a U.N. speech that he would destroy North Korea completely, making the war between President Trump and Chairman Kim more threatening. Russia also criticized President Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong Un after seeing a fight.
Another issue is the deployment of THAAD. China's retaliation against the THAAD deployment was unexpectedly harsh. Despite the high public sentiment against Korea after the official announcement, China's economy, culture, and art circles have become more dangerous. A famous singer was expected to perform three tours to China, but his application for a visa was delayed for no apparent reason and the concert was canceled. In addition, many entertainers who made their debut in China were rejected or filmed by Korean celebrities only deleted from the show or sent it out with mosaic. In addition, Chinese tourists rarely visit Myeong-dong, Seoul, due to the Chinese government's "No-Hanryeong."
