North Korea says US President Trump is psychopath and urged neighboring South Korea to abandon him.
Alwaght- North Korea says US President Trump is psychopath and urged neighboring South Korea to abandon him.
An editorial published by Pyongyang's Rodong Sinmun state-run newspaper noted that, "South Korea must realize that following psychopath Trump...will only lead to disaster."
The editorial piece pointed out that Trump is planning a preemptive strike on North Korea in hopes of distracting people from the "tough situation" he's experiencing at home.
The comments, written in Pyongyang's official newspaper, follow criticism from Donald Trump in response to the death of American student Otto Warmbier, who was returned home in a coma after spending more than year in a North Korean prison.
South Korean president Moon Jae-in is due to visit Washington next week to meet President Trump and told US media he wanted to begin talks with North Korea on its nuclear program by the end of the year.
He called the leaders in Pyongyang an "irrational regime" in an interview with CBS television's This Morning.
US-North Korea tensions have revived one of the world’s longest unresolved conflicts. Korea was ruled by Japan from 1910, then occupied by US and Soviet troops in 1945. The Republic of Korea was established in May 1948 in the US-occupied southern portion of the peninsula.
The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea was set up in the north four months later, under the Communist leader Kim Il-Sung. DPRK forces invaded the South in June 1950, seeking to reunify the country. When US-led UN troops intervened and advanced into North Korea, China and Russia, to an extent, got involved as well. The resulting stalemate was frozen by a 1953 armistice.
Over 28,500 US troops, sailors, airmen and marines in South Korea and now an armada of warships and submarines are a major source of tensions in the Korean Peninsula region and a pointer to Washington’s policy of provoking other countries in the region especially North Korea.
Tensions on the Korean Peninsula have been near boiling point following increased provocations by the US which include military drills and deployment of warships and submarines in the region.
Pyongyang insists that developing its military defenses including nuclear weapons is important to counter incessant provocations by the US including a possible nuclear aggression.
