‘World War 3 is at Trump’s fingertips’ The true extent war with North Korea REVEALED

leader Kim Jong-un used his New Year’s address to announce his arsenal of deadly nuclear weapons is ready to strike Donald Trump and the United States.

While US intelligence services do not believe the despot leader’s threats, others are more worried about the prospect of igniting from the war of words between Kim Jong-un and Donald Trump.

Speaking at the Munich Security Conference, Senator Risch said war between the two states would be “one of the worst, catastrophic events in history”.

Donald Trump’s administration is not bluffing when it threatens North Korea with the prospect off a nuclear strike, Senator Risch told the crowd in Germany.

Senator Risch said: “There is no more dangerous place on Earth than the Korean peninsula right now.

“The President of the United States has said, and he is committed to, seeing that Kim Jong-un is not able to marry together a delivery system with a nuclear weapon that he can deliver to the United States.

“The consequences of that are breathtaking when you think about how this could happen.

“If this thing starts, it’s going to be probably one of the worst catastrophic events in the history of our civilisation.

“It is going to be very, very brief. The end of it is going to see mass casualties, the likes of which the planet has never seen. It will be of biblical proportions.

“The President can do this quickly, and as I said, it is at his fingertips.”

Another expert has warned Kim Jong-un and North Korea is “very close” to finally having the true capability to strike the US.

Kim Jong-un’s plans to create an arsenal of deadly nuclear weapons is still very much on track, according to author, journalist and political analyst Loretta Napoleoni.

Napoleoni, who has recently authored ‘North Korea: The Country We Love to Hate’ said North Korea is “very close” to having the capability to launch a nuclear strike.

Speaking to Express.co.uk, Napoleoni said: “I think they are a nuclear power, so if they haven’t managed to produce a militarisation of the bomb to put on a long-range missile, they’re very close to it.”

The North Korea expert, however, revealed Kim Jong-un’s plan might not actually involve striking Donald Trump’s United States.

“Having said that, I don’t think they have any intention to use it,” Napoleoni added.
