North Korea calls Trump 'erratic' old man over tweets
North Korea insulted U.S. President Donald Trump again on Monday, calling him a "heedless and erratic old man" after Trump tweeted that North Korean leader Kim Jong Un wouldn't want to abandon a special relationship between the two leaders and affect the American presidential election by resuming hostile acts.
On Sunday, Trump tweeted: "Kim Jong Un is too smart and has far too much to lose, everything actually, if he acts in a hostile way ... North Korea, under the leadership of Kim Jong Un, has tremendous economic potential, but it must denuclearize as promised." He was referring to a vague statement issued by the two leaders during their first summit in Singapore in June last year that called for a nuclear-free Korean Peninsula without describing when or how it would occur.
Senior North Korean official and former nuclear negotiator Kim Yong Chol said Trump's tweets clearly show that he is an irritated old man "bereft of patience (and) As (Trump) is such a heedless and erratic old man, the time when we cannot but call him a 'dotard' again may come".
Kim Yong Chol's statement came days after North Korea's first vice foreign minister, Choe Sun Hui, issued a similar threat to resume insulting Trump after Trump spoke during a NATO summit in London of possible military action toward the North and revived his "rocket man" nickname for Kim Jong Un.
