US President Donald Trump has told the UN General Assembly, that America would destroy North Korea if forced to defend itself or its allies.
President Donald Trump began his first speech to the UN Tuesday with a vow to ‘totally destroy’ North Korea‘s Kim Jong-un if his regime threatens the United States, as he talked up the ‘vast military power’ of the United States.
‘Rocket man is on a suicide mission for himself and for his regime,’ Trump warned gathered world leaders, picking up a derisive term from one of his tweets over the weekend. North Korea has tested nuclear bombs and missiles in defiance of the UN.
The American leader also attacked Iran, saying it was a “corrupt dictatorship” which was intent on destabilising the Middle East. He called on the government in Tehran to cease supporting terrorism and again criticised the Obama-era deal over Iran’s nuclear programme, which he called an embarrassment.
