North Korea preparing imminent nuclear attack on USA<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

North Korea preparing imminent nuclear attack on USA:- Kim Jong-un’s LETTER OF DEATH: North Korea ‘preparing imminent nuclear attack’ on USA<\/span><\/p>\n

In a personal message sent to Vladimir Putin, Kim Jong-un\u2019s regime reportedly claimed it was preparing an imminent strike.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Russian leader then passed the intelligence on to Washington, which prompted Donald Trump to tone down his rhetoric during his East Asian trip this week, according to the Daily Star.<\/span><\/p>\n

The revelation comes as President Trump met with his Russian counterpart at a major trade summit in Vietnam this week.<\/span><\/p>\n

Valentina Matvienko, Russia’s Chairwoman of the Federation Council, reportedly revealed last month she had received a letter sent from Pyongyang addressed to Mr Putin.<\/span><\/p>\n

Sources claim the letter contained a direct warning of an imminent nuclear attack on the US.<\/span><\/p>\n

However the Kremlin has since denied reports of the message, with officials saying they were \u201cunaware\u201d of any letter.<\/span><\/p>\n

The US leader has been engaged in a bitter war of words with dictator Kim, with the pair trading insults and threats of nuclear war for months.<\/span><\/p>\n

But although Mr Trump warned the tyrant \u201cdo not try us\u201d while in Seoul this week, he refrained from the sort of personal insults he has previously used, including labelling Kim \u201clittle rocket man\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

While addressing South Korean leaders on the ever-increasing threat posed by the nuclear-armed North, the US leader directed some of his words at the war-crazed tyrant.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said: \u201dThe weapons you are acquiring are not making you safer, they are putting your regime in grave danger.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Every step you take down this dark path increases the peril you face.<\/span><\/p>\n

“North Korea is not the paradise your grandfather envisioned.<\/span><\/p>\n

“It is a hell that no person deserves.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Mr Trump was in Seoul on November 7 as part of a 12-day, five-nation tour of East Asia.<\/span><\/p>\n

The South Korean capital is just 35 miles from the heavily fortified Demilitarised Zone where Kim has thousands of heavy weapons trained on the sprawling city.<\/span><\/p>\n

The President\u2019s trip was chiefly aimed at trade and drumming up support for a solution to the North Korean crisis.<\/span><\/p>\n

But despite refraining from personal insults for the majority of the tour, last night Mr Trump referred to Kim as \u201cshort and fat\u201d in a Tweet.<\/span><\/p>\n

He said: \u201cWhy would Kim Jong-un insult me by calling me \u2018old,\u2019 when I would NEVER call him \u2018\u201dshort and fat?\u2019<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cOh well, I try so hard to be his friend – and maybe someday that will happen!\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The President is in the Philippines today and tomorrow to meet with controversial President Rodrigo Duterte.<\/span><\/p>\n

North Korea\u2019s nuclear and ballistic missile programme has greatly advanced since Kim came to power in June 2016.<\/span><\/p>\n

He continues to plough money in to researching and developing the long-range rockets needed to deliver their deadly payloads to targets on the mainland US.<\/span><\/p>\n

In July, the regime successfully launched its first intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) which analysts say has the ability to reach the west coast of the United States.<\/span><\/p>\n

US military experts believe the North has at least four nuclear warheads which are small enough to attach to the rockets.<\/span><\/p>\n

The regime could also possess the technology to produce hugely destructive hydrogen bombs, after South Korean intelligence saw signs of a suspected H-bomb test in September.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kim\u2019s regime claimed it successfully detonated a 120 kiloton device which it says is small enough to be carried on one of its missiles.<\/span><\/p>\n

By comparison, the nuclear bomb which left Hiroshima in ruins in the final days of World War Two had the destructive power of around 20 kilotons.<\/span><\/p>\n

Most of Britain\u2019s submarine-based Trident nuclear weapons have yields of between 80 and 100 kilotons.<\/span><\/p>\n

And the Pentagon estimates the regime has around 200 launchers dotted across the hermit state, which can be equipped to fire short and medium range missiles.<\/span><\/p>\n

Those weapons lack the range to reach America, but could strike most of East Asia as well as the US Pacific territories.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kim\u2019s last ballistic missile test was carried out on September 15, terrifying residents of Japan\u2019s northernmost island Hokkaido as it blasted overhead before landing in the Pacific Ocean.<\/span><\/p>\n

The dictator has previous threatened to use his Hwasong-14 long-range rockets to target the US territory of Guam.<\/span><\/p>\n
