Trump will “decimate” North Korea unless Kim agrees to denuclearise the Korean peninsula.

Trump threatens Kim with ‘decimation’ if deal not struck, SMH, 19 May 18    Washington: US President Donald Trump has threatened North Korean leader Kim Jong-un with “decimation”, unless Kim agrees to denuclearise the Korean peninsula.

With the June 12 US-North Korea summit at stake and plenty of statements flying from both sides, Trump gave Kim two options: reach an agreement to denuclearise and remain in power or suffer the fate of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, who was overthrown and murdered by rebels who were supported by a NATO bombing campaign in 2011.
