Pak Yong-sik, the minister of armed forces, warned Donald Trump that “precise and advanced striking” means his secretive state have already deployed units to strike the US.
Our nuclear weapons are capable of striking US military bases in Asia-Pacific areas and the US homeland
The North’s defence chief said: “Our nuclear weapons are capable of striking US military bases in Asia-Pacific areas and the US homeland are fully prepared to be fired from launchers.”
He claimed if enemy forces move to make a military attack on the North – despite repeated warnings – a strong preemptive strike will wipe out the enemies’ headquarters from this planet.
The latest inflammatory remarks come as Mr Trump held conversations with the Chinese president Xi Jinping and Japanese prime minister Shinzo Abe, aimed at stopping the nuclear ambitions of the North.
It follows reports that senior officials in the White House are calling all 100 senators to Capitol Hill for an unusual meeting on how to deal with North Korea.
Senior aides confirmed Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, Secretary of Defence Jim Mattis, Director of National Intelligence Dan Coats and General Joseph Dunford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff will hold the briefing.
