Trump derides North Korea’s leader as ‘Rocket Man’

For instance, North Korea launched its second missile over Japan on September 15, days after the United Nations Security Council imposed new sanctions against it.

The regime wanted to display its displeasure at the latest round of United Nations sanctions, which were imposed following North Korea’s sixth nuclear test on 3 September, its most powerful to date.

China has urged the United States to refrain from making threats to North Korea. “None of us want that”.

“None of us want war”, Haley added in an interview on CNN.

“We really have to move with a great deal of urgency, on sanctions, on diplomacy and on preparing, if necessary, a military option”, McMaster said.

In another development on Monday, the US’s 1st Stryker Brigade Combat Team and the Japan Self-Defense Force (JSDF) held urban warfare and frontline rescue drills near the foot of Mount Fuji.

North Korea is expected to be key among the issues he discusses with tensions reaching a new peak.

“I spoke with President Moon of South Korea last night”.

South Korea confirmed the cooperative approach. He also called Jong Un “Rocket Man”.

He was referring to an accelerating series of missile tests by North Korea that have defied USA and global warnings to stop.

President Trump is preparing to address the United Nations General Assembly for the first time in his presidency, just as controversy erupts over his handling of North Korea.

Yesterday we reported dictator Kim Jong-un taunted Donald Trump boasting “America’s fate is in hands of North Korea” by vowing to turn USA into a “sea of flames”.

On Sunday, he warned of imminent danger from Pyongyang.

Trump has repeatedly threatened that the military option is on the table regarding North Korea, warning Pyongyang that it would be destroyed if it refused to do as it was told.

It said Beijing “will never accept the “responsibility” imposed by the U.S”.

“If our diplomatic efforts fail though our military option will be in the only one left”.

However, Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei clearly disclosed his opinion on Sunday, September 17, stating that his country will never be bullied by the U.S. and would definitely react with stringent measures against any “wrong move” by Washington on the nuke deals.

“The president has been very clear that he views this threat of North Korea as ever growing”, Tillerson said.

The occasion will mark Trump’s first United Nations appearance as president and will be held in New York City, not far from Trump’s former home at Trump Tower.

Current tensions with North Korea are expected to be a huge point of discussion during Trump’s United Nations visit as the administration is increasingly showing signs that it wants to take military action against the Hermit Kingdom.

Tillerson said North Korea does not appear to be interested in denuclearization talks.
