President Donald Trump updated his warning to North Korea on Friday, saying American weapons were “locked and loaded”.
Trump kept up the war of words on Twitter shortly after the North Korean state news agency, KCNA, put out a statement blaming him for the escalated tensions.
“Trump is driving the situation on the Korean peninsula to the brink of a nuclear war, making such outcries as ’the U.S. will not rule out a war against the DPRK,'” KCNA said.
Trump, who is at his Bedminster, New Jersey, golf resort on a working vacation, described American military readiness in stark terms.
“Military solutions are now fully in place, locked and loaded, should North Korea act unwisely,” he wrote on Twitter. “Hopefully Kim Jong Un will find another path!”
