N. Korea’s ICBM test launch ‘not far away,’ will tackle ‘hostile policy’ of US – state media

N. Korea hinted it may test-fire an ICBM in the near future, state media says, adding that the missile will help Pyongyang tackle the US’ “hostile policy,” as Washington never “dared to go to war with a country that possesses nuclear weapons or ICBMs.”

“The series of recent strategic weapons tests show that we are not too far away from test-firing an intercontinental ballistic missile,” North Korean Rodong Sinmun official newspaper said, according to South Korean media.

According to the Pyongyang paper, the great success of test-firing an ICBM (intercontinental ballistic missile) “will mark a historic watershed moment in the failure of the US hostile policy.”
