North Korea warns Donald Trump to stop ‘abusive language’ against Kim

Pyongyang/Seoul: North Korea has warned US President Donald Trump to stop “abusive language” that may offend its leader Kim Jong-un, Pyongyang’s state media reported. “The recent words and expressions spouted one after another by Trump sound like a threat to someone at a glance but they are a corroboration that he feels fear inside,” Ri Su-yong, Vice-Chairman of the Central Committee of the ruling Workers’ Party of Korea, said in a statement carried by the North’s Korean Central News Agency (KCNA).

Last week, Trump hinted that the US would use military force against North Korea if necessary, Yonhap News Agency reported.

In response, North Korea said it would take “prompt corresponding actions at any level” if the US uses force against it.

“Trump might be in great jitters but he had better accept the status quo that as he sowed, so he should reap, and think twice if he does not want to see bigger catastrophic consequences,” KCNA quoted Ri as saying.

“Trump would be well advised to quit abusive language which may further offend the Chairman,” he added. On Tuesday, North’s official newspaper, Rodong Sinmun raised Kim’s year-long drive for “self-reliance” in an apparent bid to tighten its internal consolidation amid the escalation tension with the US.
