Last I checked, Presidents, PMs, etc., usually have at least titular
control over their Defence Departments and, being politicians, in the
event of the most unlikely series of events will go to their DDs and ask
them for their plans for dealing with said event. Woe betide them should
they have nothing more than a sheepish grin on their faces in that case.

I am certain that China, Russia, and perhaps even Japan have "plans" for
nuking N Korea under certain circumstances. Again, a non-story.
