North Korea: The US space shield is the scenario of nuclear war

Pyongyang state media reported Tuesday that the North Korean State Department has called the US Golden Shield missile defense project a “very dangerous and threatening act”.

US President Donald Trump announced on May 9 that he had chosen a plan for the Golden Dome missile defense system and set the leadership of the $ 2 billion ambitious program.

According to the KCN state News agency, the US Institute for Studies affiliated with the North State Department has said the golden dome is a “prominent example of the slogan” US First “, the peak of self -sacrifice, arrogance, dominant and arbitrary behavior and a scenario of nuclear war in space.

The plan added that the Golden Dome Missile Defense System is not a “defense action” to respond to the “threat” by any party, but a scenario for a spatial nuclear war. The report said that the Golden Dome system is “a new US attempt to militarize space that can only be tackled by strengthening the top forces.”

According to Reuters, the goal of the Golden Dome system is to use a network of hundreds of satellites in orbit with advanced sensors and interceptors to destroy enemy missiles after launching countries such as China, Iran, North Korea or Russia.

China announced last week that the project was “deeply concerned” and called on Washington to stop its development.
