Thae Yong Ho fears the world should be prepared because Kim is “desperate in maintaining his rule by relying on his nuclear weapons and ICBM”.
Outraged Trump ordered the missile strikes just a day after he pointed the finger at Assad for this week’s chemical attack.Ī high-profile defector predicted Kim Jong-un WILL use nuclear weapons against the US and UK – unless they “eliminate him” first. The prospect of World War Three has already moved terrifyingly closer this week not just because of the tense situation on the Korean peninsula, but after Trump’s missile attack on the Syrian regime, following its alleged chemical weapons massacre which killed 100 people. “We have the readiness and ability to counter any challenge from the US.” “Our army has already said that if there will be even the smallest provocation from the United States during exercises, we are ready to deliver the most ruthless blow,” said Mr Hyong-Jun. Kym Hyong-Jun, North Korea’s ambassador to Moscow, has told Trump that it was ready to ready to respond if these operations challenged their country. This training was branded “reckless” by North Korea’s foreign ministry who said it was driving the Korean peninsula to the “brink of war”.
