According to Maria Zakharova, in this situation, non-constructive is the position of the government of North Korea, but the United States. "If you look at the rhetoric of Washington and the rhetoric of Pyongyang... it became almost the same. In the issue of the nuclear programme of the Korean Peninsula. It turns out that the United States has put himself on a level of rhetoric with the authorities of the DPRK," she said. Moreover, according to the diplomat, the American highest political circles of the very best such hysteria. "The story of North Korea as a nuclear problem of the Korean Peninsula as a whole is now played exactly like the American political map," suggested Zakharova.

So, the head of the Central intelligence Agency Michael Pompeo, citing intelligence, said that while there is no evidence of the possibility of such negative developments. I heard a lot of arguments that the U.S. is on the brink of nuclear war with North Korea. But I have no intelligence who would say that we have reached this situation," said Pompeo, unable to restrain himself from another "formidable studs" to the North Korean authorities and adding that "strategic patience" of the United States against recalcitrant Pyongyang has really dried up.
