North Korea Says It May 'Abandon Its Trust Buildning Measures With The U.S.' And Resume Long-Range Missile And Nuclear-Weapons Tests

 

Reuters: N.Korea suggests it may resume nuclear, missile tests, slams 'hostile' U.S 

SEOUL (Reuters) - North Korea would bolster its defences against the United States and consider restarting "all temporally-suspended activities," state media KCNA reported Thursday, an apparent reference to a self-imposed moratorium on testing its nuclear weapons and long-range missiles. 

Tension has been rising over a recent series of North Korean missile tests. 

A U.S. push for fresh sanctions was followed by heated reaction from Pyongyang, raising the spectre of a return to the period of so-called "fire and fury" threats of 2017. 

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un convened a meeting of the powerful politburo of the ruling Workers' Party on Wednesday to discuss "important policy issues," including countermeasures over "hostile" U.S. policy, the official KCNA news agency said.

WNU Editor: This is a disappointment. All of President Trump's and South Korean President Moon Jae-in's  efforts to develop a more stable situation on the Korean peninsula is now going down the drain because the Biden administration simply do not know how to move forward on this file (or are unwilling). 

Not surprising. The South Koreans are coming to the same conclusion .... S. Korea says it's monitoring N. Korea with 'sense of tension,' stresses need for dialogue (The Korea Herald).

North Korea was already taking this path in the latter stages of the Trump administration and being hostile.

@8:12am

The only mouth-foaming is the rapid diseased Trumpers coming out who attack others, in this case, foaming over a benign comment. One in ALL CAPS and another below.

Which is hilarious considering I'm a Trump supporter, but not completely blind like the dementia suffering idiots above.

What is sad is 8:46 does such a shit job at reasoning. It is almost as if he was 60 year old former lineman, who is about to go postal.

It would help if you control chart this along with putting in special events. I can very well see a hardline president down in the polls being ignored by an adversary, because the adversary assumes that the loosey goosey, I got room for more, Democrat is assumed to be the eventual winner.

I can smell a North Korean insult from a mile away.

I don't agree with 11:18 in the sense that this would be the continued course, I think Trump would have taken on a harsh tone with N.Korea if they acted up like this. Saying that though NK were definitely being antagonistic in the last term of the Trump admin.

I think @9:59 and the others that are going mental appear to be N.Korean fangirls. Very sensitive little girls that they are.

Damn, this blog has really attracted a lot of loonies since Trump, well, since the author of this blog professed his dying love for Trump.

It really has drawn out all the crazies.
