The Washington Post (WP), the leading American daily, has claimed that President Donald Trump’s attempts to deter North Korea’s nuclear weapons have failed. The evidence is the new intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) that North Korea unveiled in a feverish ceremony on the 10th anniversary of the 75th anniversary of the founding of the Labor Party.

He mentioned that “the greatest threat to the United States is Iran.” The newspaper criticized that “Iran still does not have atomic bombs and there are no missiles within range to reach the American continent,” the newspaper said. “Secretary Pompeo’s comments showed that the Trump administration was dangerously unaware of reality.” did.
