Kim Jong Un’s regime said it is not frightened by Secretary of State Rex Tillerson’s warning that pre-emptive military action is „on the table. „
North Korea is not frightened by U. S. warnings that pre-emptive military action is on the table, its foreign ministry said Tuesday, describing its expanding nuclear program as a „treasured sword of justice. “
A spokesman for the rogue regime dismissed Secretary of State Rex Tillerson’s comment Friday that an elevated weapons threat „would be met with an appropriate response. “
„If the businessmen-turned-U. S. authorities thought that they would frighten [North Korea], they would soon know that their method would not work,“ the foreign ministry said according to state news agency KCNA .
The regime „has the will and capability to fully respond to any war the U. S. would like to ignite,“ it added. „The U. S. should face up to the situation … with its eyes wide open. “
It comes after leader Kim Jong Un announced the ground test of a „high-thrust“ rocket engine on Saturday.
