The US Navy has confirmed three US aircraft carriers, joined by guided missile destroyers and submarines, will carry out at a mock battle in the Pacific at the same time President Trump visits South Korea.
North Korea leader Kim, who is becoming increasingly isolated, is likely to see the move as a major provocation during the American leader’s five-nation Asia tour and has sparked fears bickering nations are on the brink of World War 3.
During a press conference in Seoul, President Donald Trump sent a direct warning to the despot regime, telling Kim he would be prepared to defend the US and its allies.
He said Pyongyang must understand the “unparalleled strength” that Washington had at its disposal.
President Trump said: “I think we’re showing great strength.
“We sent three of the largest aircraft carriers in the world to the Korean Peninsula and a nuclear submarine is also positioned.
“We will together confront North Korea.
“We will be prepared to use the full range of our military capabilities if needs be to prevent the North Korean dictator from threatening lives … so needlessly.”
