North Korea Fired A Ballistic Missile, President Trump Responded

North Korea appeared to fire a missile early Sunday in its first such test of the year. It conducted two nuclear tests and a slew of rocket launches last year.

The U.S. Strategic Command says it detected and tracked what it assessed was a medium- or intermediate-range ballistic missile test-fired by North Korea.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un warned in his New Year’s address that his country was ready to test its first intercontinental ballistic missile, which could threaten the U.S. mainland.
The missile was launched around 7:55 am (2255 GMT Saturday) from Banghyon air base in the western province of North Pyongan, and flew east towards the Sea of Japan (East Sea), the South’s defence ministry said.

It flew about 500 kilometres (310 miles) before falling into the sea, a ministry spokesman said, adding the exact type of missile had yet to be identified.

“Today’s missile launch… is aimed at drawing global attention to the North by boasting its nuclear and missile capabilities”, the ministry said in a statement.

“It is also believed that it was an armed provocation to test the response from the new US administration under President Trump,” it added.

Visiting Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and Trump appeared together for a statement Saturday night in a ballroom at Trump’s south Florida estate Mar-a-Lago.
‘North Korea’s most recent missile launch is absolutely intolerable,’ Abe said through a translator.

President Trump and I myself completely share the view that we are going to promote further cooperation between the two nations. And also we are going to further reinforce our alliance,’ he said.

Trump followed Abe with even fewer words, saying in part: ‘I just want everybody to understand and fully know that the United States of America stands behind Japan, its great ally, 100 per cent.’
This is scary but North Korea needs to know Trump is no push over! Trump stand strong!



I support President Trump and Pence They are a great team, they make haste not waste. Coalition rebuilt with our friends first. Rebuilt our depleted military and then go from there.

And about North Korea didn’t these people see the Iraqi war? The U.s. barely flexed its muscle. Don’t push us, we’ve been very tolerant thus far.
Don’t mess with America!! We have a real President now.
