TIL Desk/World/Washington/US President Donald Trump said that “all options” are under consideration in response to North Korea firing an unidentified ballistic missile over Japan on Tuesday as Kim Jong Un’s latest provocation rattled markets.
“The world has received North Korea’s latest message loud and clear: this regime has signalled its contempt for its neighbours, for all members of the United Nations, and for minimum standards of acceptable international behaviour,” Trump said in a statement Tuesday before flying to Texas.
“Threatening and destabilising actions only increase the North Korean regime’s isolation in the region and among all nations of the world,” according to the statement. “All options are on the table.”
The missile landed in the Pacific Ocean about 1,200 km east of Japan’s northern island of Hokkaido, Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga told reporters. South Korean President Moon Jae-in ordered a show of force in response, with four F-15K jet fighters conducting bomb-dropping drills.
