The United States is “doomed to ruin” according to Kim Jong-un’s propaganda mouthpiece.
In an opinion piece published in Rodong Sinmun this week, North Korea blasted Donald Trump’s “empire of evil” and threatened conflict if America did not back off and leave North Korea to accelerate its own missile programme.
The propaganda rag also dismissed the validity of America’s Nuclear Posture Review (NPR), claiming Mr Trump was using the report as an excuse to launch a deadly attack on North Korea
The newspaper, which essentially acts as a mouthpiece for Kim’s government, said: “The NPR is nothing but an open declaration of war by the rogue state which means to dare make a preemptive nuclear strike on the DPRK in order to bring the Korean peninsula and the world into a nuclear holocaust.
“The NPR invented by the Trump group is a product of the black-hearted intention to realise the ambition for aggression by starting a nuclear war on the Korean Peninsula at any cost.”
The piece said Mr Trump’s threats would only result in American pain and suffering - and warned of a “decisive military strike” on the US mainland.
