South Korean officials have issued a statement on Tuesday claiming that North Korea has fired multiple unidentified projectiles into the sea. The projectiles were fired from northeastern North Korea, and to the east.
US officials said they were aware of the report, but didn’t comment beyond that. South Korean reports didn’t clarify the range of the projectiles or exactly how many exactly there were.
This comes six days after North Korea fired two missiles, which they
said was a warning to South Korea. US officials have insisted that they
don’t have a problem with the missile firing, with Trump noting they’re
very ordinary missiles.
While it is impossible to draw any conclusions until we know more about
these new tests, barring them being something far more advanced, the US
is unlikely to consider it a big deal, though South Korean officials
may.
With Bolton and Pompeo constantly beating the drum for war with Iran, this is Kim Jong-un’s way of saying to Trump, “Hey, remember me, your best bud?” Kim probably feels like a bride left at the altar and is pissed, really pissed.
