Speaking in Geneva, Han Tae Song told his counterparts at the UN-sponsored Conference on Disarmament that the world should expect more nuclear testing and missile launches in a terrifying warning.
He said: “The recent self-defence measures by my country, DPRK [North Korea], are a gift package addressed to none other than the US.
“The US will receive more gift packages from my country as long as it relies on reckless provocations and futile attempts to put pressure on the DPRK.”
The war threat comes just two days after North Korea detonated its sixth and largest nuclear test, which prompted a 6.3-magnitude earthquake and was branded the “perfect” detonation of a hydrogen bomb by Pyongyang.
The hermit state hailed its recent detonation of a hydrogen bomb in a statement from the Korean People’s Army, praising the “thrilling nuclear thunder” as “heavy punishment” and a “sledgehammer blow” to Donald Trump.

And the North Korean military lashed out at the West, claiming the US is failing to take the country seriously over its nuclear warheads, with their preferred action being “brigandish sanctions”.
The propaganda message also hit out at US imperialists, who are “bringing the worst touch-and-go situation on the Korean peninsula while being carried away by ill-advised bravery”.
The statement read: “Our Republic already warned them spending a hard time of every minute of their miserable lot while putting their necks into the noose with their own hands to reasonably think and pass correct judgment if they wanted to avoid a fresh blow from us in front of the world.
“It is time for the war hawks of the US to acknowledge again that its whole mainland and the operational area in the Pacific are within the annihilating and merciless nuclear fist of the powerful Paektusan revolutionary army.
“If they persist on extremely dangerous war drills around the Korean peninsula and provoke a nuclear war on this land, the powerful Paektusan revolutionary army will annihilate the source of aggression and evil on the earth with the nuclear strategic force consolidated with the great line of simultaneously developing the two fronts.”
Meanwhile, a leading Chinese scientist has warned that North Korea continuous with its repeated blasts it could lead to the collapse of its mountainous nuclear testing site.
The Punggye-ri site in the north-west of the country is where North Korea has conducted its five most recent nuclear bomb tests and any further blasts could cause the entire site to collapse, which would have a devastating effect on the region.
The international community has offered a variety of different proposals to resolve the escalating crisis on the Korean peninsula, but is yet to unanimously agree a solution.
Russia and China have called for diplomacy and said new threats and sanctions will not deter the Kim regime.
The US, Japan and South Korea appear to be moving away from diplomacy and towards more powerful means of reducing the threat, with Seoul conducting a series of military drills in a show of force against their hostile northern neighbours.
