“Trump is always making provocations with his aggressive words… It’s not the DPRK but the US and Trump that makes trouble.”
In a terse response to President Trump’s earlier threats and later promises of pre-emptive strikes, North Korea’s vice foreign minister Han Song Ryol says it is not his own country but the United States and President Donald Trump who are “making trouble.”
Vice Minister Han made the comments in an exclusive interview with The Associated Press in Pyongyang on Friday. Trump tweeted on Tuesday that North Korea was “looking for trouble” and added that if China doesn’t do its part to rein in Pyongyang’s nuclear ambitions, the U. S. can handle it.
Han cited Trump’s tweets as problematic, as well as the U. S. military’s participation in exercises with South Korea and an aircraft carrier’s move to the region.
“Trump is always making provocations with his aggressive words. …. It’s not the DPRK but the US and Trump that makes trouble.”
Furthermore, North Korea’s vice foreign minister said it will conduct its next nuclear test whenever its supreme headquarters sees fit, warning that the situation on the Korean Peninsula was in a “vicious cycle” as tensions with the U.
