After the U.S. President Donald Trump said on Twitter that North Korea “won’t be around much longer”, the reclusive nuclear nation has now fired back. North Korea’s Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho said: “Last weekend Trump claimed that our leadership wouldn’t be around much longer and declared a war on our country. Since the United States declared war on our country, we will have every right to make all self-defensive countermeasures, including the right to shoot down the United States strategic bombers at any time even when they are not yet inside the aerospace border of our country”. He added, “The whole world should clearly remember it was the U.S. who first declared war on our country” rump took on Twitter to respond to Ri Yong remarks and said, “Just heard Foreign Minister of North Korea speak at UN If he echoes thoughts of Little Rocket Man, they won’t be around much longer!”. Pyongyang called Trump’s comments an “intolerable insult to the Korean people, a declaration of war against the DPRK and grave threats to the global peace”. The letter published by KCNA read, “If Trump thinks that he would bring the DPRK, a nuclear power to its knees through nuclear war threat, it is a big miscalculation and ignorance”.
