Earlier today, President Trump cut funds for North Korea weaponry, via executive order, as reported by CNBC. North Korea has demonstrated their lack of regard for the livelihood of other nations countless times and should no longer have access to weapons with the ability to kill countless people.
A Detailed Analysis
President Trump gave the following statement about the newly imposed sanctions:
North Korea brought this upon themselves. For far too long, they have run amuck, launching missiles and threatening nations around the world. They have no regard for human life. Therefore, significant funding cuts are to be expected. Allowing North Korea access to weapons that could be used against America and our allies is foolish. The Obama days are over. President Trump will not sit idly by like his predecessor.
Response From North Korea
According to Reuters, Kim Jong Un called President Trump “deranged.” Additionally, the communist dictator noted that North Korea shall persist with their missile programs. They also indirectly threatened America, stating that we might be a target.
