US President Donald Trump has said he has “no problem” with North Korea’s recent ballistic missile tests amid an outcry from Washington’s allies and growing fears that Pyongyang is developing long-range weapons.
The North has conducted three tests over the past week, drawing condemnation from European members of the UN Security.
Trump told reporters as he left the White House for a rally in Ohio yesterday, that he has no problem and will see what happens but short-range missiles are very standard. Trump has played down Pyongyang’s recent launches, saying its rhetoric was targeting Seoul rather than Washington.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has said the US and the South will press ahead with the military drills.
