N. Korea’s Likely Response Stops US From Preemptive Strike – Russian Lawmaker
MOSCOW, (Sputnik) – North Korea’s possible retaliatory strike is the only thing that deters the United States from carrying out a preemptive strike on Pyongyang’s missile sites, First Deputy Chairman of Russia’s Federation Council Committee on Defense and Security Frants Klintsevich said on Thursday.
On Wednesday, the NBC broadcaster reported, citing senior military officials, that the Pentagon had prepared a specific plan for carrying out strikes on North Korea, should US President Donald Trump order such an attack.
