Trump said he’s “not at all” surprised about North Korea’s latest missile tests
President Donald Trump on Friday downplayed North Korea’s missile tests that took place the day before, saying he wasn’t surprised by the short range launches and shrugging off the volatile nation’s warning to South Korea.
A reporter then said the president didn’t sound surprised by the tests, to which Trump responded: “Not at all.”that North Korea called the tests a “solemn warning” targeted at “South Korean military warmongers.” Though Pyongyang pointedly avoided calling out the U.S., the test of “a new type of tactical guided weapon” came as the U.S. and South Korea planned to hold joint military drills in the region.
“But he didn’t say that, but they’re short range missiles — and very standard missiles,” he concluded. “We urge no more provocations. This administration is committed to diplomatic engagement with the North Koreans and we continue to press and hope for these working-level negotiations to move forward.”
