Washington must prepare for a nuclear attack because of the growing threat from North Korea, according to a senator from the US state.
Mark Miloscia said the danger to Washington, which is the closest part of the contiguous US to North Korea, was ‘starting to become imminent’.
And he warned that the threat was growing with each weapons test, urging lawmakers to back the bid for an emergency response plan when they meet tomorrow.
The senator – who flew nuclear-ready B52 bombers during the Cold War – also said that America could not rely on the safeguards that once prevented hostilities with the Soviet Union.
He said: ‘In the Cuban Missile Crisis we had the institution of the red phone, and various ways of contacting each other militarily to make sure we don’t escalate.
‘None of that exists with North Korea. With the current regime, we don’t even have anything close to the controls over the relationships we had with the Soviet Politburo and its leaders.
