Nuclear-armed North Korea has warned Tokyo against « imminent self-destruction » for siding with Washington, as tensions soar after Pyongyang fired a missile over Japan.
The North set off global alarm Tuesday when it fired an intermediate-range missile over the Asian island nation, triggering condemnation from world leaders including the U. S. and Japan.
Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe denounced the launch as an « unprecedented, serious and grave threat » and agreed with U. S. President Donald Trump to « further strengthen pressure against North Korea ».
The North’s official KCNA news agency decried the former colonial power in a commentary, saying: « Japan has now come out with its sleeves rolled up in supporting its master’s anti-DPRK war moves.
