Moon also called China's Xi Jinping on Wednesday and spoke to the Chinese leader for 40 minutes.
The accusation came after weeks of tension over North Korea's nuclear and missile development and fears it will conduct a sixth nuclear test or test-launch another ballistic missile in defiance of UN Security Council resolutions.
Moon expressed his hope to visit Trump and Xi in the near future, pledging cooperation with both in denuclearizing North Korea.

"We want to contribute to the peace and prosperity of the Korean peninsula together with other countries including South Korea", The Global Times quoted Xi as saying.
Only a few middle and high schools in South Korea have said that they would pick the books the state has issued.
A North Korean parliamentary committee sent a rare letter of protest to the U.S. House of Representatives on Friday, May 12, 2017, over its new package of tougher sanctions.
China has vigorously opposed the deployment of a United States anti-missile system in South Korea, saying it threatens Chinese security and will do nothing to resolve tensions with North Korea.
There was, for example, the 1968 attempt to kill South Korea's president.
South Korean officials called the claim "groundless". The opposition has been intensified by China's furious reaction, including a boycott of South Korean brands, and President Trump's statement last month - promptly pulled back - that Seoul should pay $1 billion for the battery.
