China Warns the North that it faced a cut-off of vital oil supplies
if it dared test a nuclear weapon.

Chinese state-run newspaper warned the North that it faced a cut-off of vital oil supplies if it dared test a nuclear weapon. North Korea is almost entirely dependent on China for its oil, and a loss of its supplies would cripple the noticeable economic growth in the country.

North Korea is celebrating the 105th anniversary of the birth of Kim Il-sung, the founder of the nation. Its leader is expected to use the occasion to either stage a weapons test or conduct a missile test.

U.S President Donald Trump stated that China has been working very hard and supporting and praised President Xi Jinping as a terrific person who will try hard in dealing with the North Korea, according to Arirang News, President Trump said he had great confidence in China although U.S.A and its allies will take care of the problem, if Beijing is unable to do so.

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson traveled to Tokyo; Japan, Seoul, the Republic of Korea, and Beijing, China March 15-19, his first visit as Secretary to the East Asia and Pacific region.
In each country, Secretary Tillerson met with senior officials to discuss bilateral and multilateral issues, including strategic coordination to address the advancing nuclear and missile threat from the D.P.R.K., and reaffirm the Administration’s commitment to further broaden and
enhance U.S. economic and security interests in the Asia-Pacific region.

The Secretary arrived in Tokyo on March 15, continued on to Seoul on March 17, and traveled to Beijing on March 18, 2017.

China's state-run media cheered Secretary of State Rex Tillerson's weekend visit to Beijing as a diplomatic win for their own country.

The headline of the Xinhua news agency trumpeted, "Cooperation is the correct choice." The sentiment echoed conciliatory comments by U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson and China President Xi Jinping. It was carried by all state-run newspapers.

President Xi, thank you so much for that very warm welcome, and for receiving me in Beijing on this, my first visit to China as Secretary of State.

President Trump places a very high value on the communications that have already occurred between yourself and President Trump, most particularly the very lengthy telephone conversation, where there were very good exchanges to improve the understanding of China's view of the relationship with the United States, and President Trump's view, as well. And he looks forward to enhancing that understanding, and the opportunity for a visit in the future.

We know that, through further dialogue, we will achieve a greater understanding that will lead to a strengthened -- strengthening of the ties between China and the United States, and set the tone for our future relationship of cooperation.

I appreciate very much the time that Foreign Minister Wang and Senior Councilor Yang have extended to me on this visit. We had very comprehensive dialogue regarding important areas for future discussion, and also important elements to ensure a successful visit in the future.

According to The Associated Press, AP March 19th, 2017:

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson ended his first trip to Asia Sunday by saying that the United States is looking forward to the first meeting between President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping.

Tillerson said in talks with President Xi Jinping in Beijing that Trump places a "very high value" on communications with the Chinese president.

Trump looks forward to "the opportunity of a visit in the future," Tillerson said.

"You said that China-U.S. relations can only be friendly. I express my appreciation for this," President Xi said, according to Reuters.

President Xi Jinping told to Secretary of State Rex Tillerson that China considered his meetings on Saturday with Foreign Ministry Wang Yi and top diplomat Yang Jiechi to have been productive and constructive. According to Secretary of State Report site, he had successful meeting and they had the opportunity to have a good exchange on our two leaders getting to know one another better, and we too look forward to this future opportunity for the two leaders to meet. The better they know one another, the stronger will be our bilateral relations as well, because they can provide direction and guidance to both of governments on how they can work more closely together to strengthen this very important relationship, not just for two countries but for many others in the region and (inaudible).

"Both (Trump) and I believe that we need to make joint efforts to advance China-U.S. cooperation and we believe that we can make sure the relationship will move ahead in a constructive fashion in the new era," Xi said.

"We know that through further dialogue we will achieve a greater understanding that will lead to a strengthened, strengthening of the ties between China and the United States and set the tone for our future relationship of cooperation," Tillerson said, according to Reuters.

Tillerson's Beijing visit followed his remarks on Friday in South Korea that pre-emptive military action against North Korea might be necessary if the threat from its weapons program reaches a level "that we believe requires action."

China hasn't responded directly to those comments, although Beijing has called repeatedly for all sides to take steps in reducing tensions.

China has reluctantly agreed to U.N. Security Council resolutions sanctioning North Korea, but is adamantly opposed to measures that might bring about a collapse of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un's regime. Beijing fears Kim's fall would send waves of refugees into northeastern China and see South Korean and American forces taking up positions along its border. U.S.-China relationship has been over 40 years with the historic opening between the U.S. and China, and through that period, which is positive relationship built on non-confrontation, no conflict, mutual respect, and always searching for win-win solutions.

Chinese President Xi Jinping on Sunday met with visiting U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson, saying that cooperation is the only correct choice for both countries.

There are important development opportunities resulting from China-U.S. relations, said President Xi Jinping during the meeting at the Great Hall of People in Beijing.

Chinese President Xi Jinping said he had maintained sound communications through telephone calls and messages with U.S. President Donald Trump and that they had agreed that the two countries could be good cooperative partners.

To advance China-U.S. relations in a healthy and steady manner, Xi said, both sides should enhance exchanges at the high and other levels, expand cooperation bilaterally, regionally and globally, and properly address and manage sensitive issues. The two sides should keep to the general direction of the Sino-U.S. relations in the spirit of being responsible for history and future generations, said Xi.

Xi suggested that the two countries increase strategic mutual trust and understanding, review bilateral relations from a long-term and strategic perspective and expand areas for win-win cooperation.

The two countries should enhance coordination on regional hotspot issues, respect each other's core interests and major concerns and encourage friendly exchanges between the two peoples, said President Xi.

President Xi Jinping also extended welcome to President Trump for a visit to China. Tillerson said President Trump valued communication with President Xi, and looked forward to meeting Xi and the opportunity for a visit to China. The U.S. side is ready to develop relations with China based on the principle of no conflict, no confrontation, mutual respect and win-win cooperation, said Tillerson. It is Tillerson's first visit to China since he assumed office last month. State Councilor Yang Jiechi and Foreign Minister Wang Yi held meetings with Tillerson on separate occasions on Saturday.

On March 17th, 2017: Before Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping North Korea Testesd High Thrust Intercontinental Ballistic Missile Engine.

US Officials Report That North Korea Has Conducted Another Missile Test! THAAD?!

The officials said the latest engine trial is the third such test in recent weeks using similar technology.

One official said that the initial assessment indicates that the engine technology could possibly be used in an eventual intercontinental ballistic missile.

Breaking News - North Korea Test High-Thrust Intercontinental Ballistic Missile Engine

North Korea’s state-run new media said it has successfully tested a newly developed high-thrust missile engine from its northwest facility, where the country has been launching rockets to put satellites into orbit.

The high-thrust engine is a break through accomplishment by North Korea in its effort to test launch its long range intercontinental ballistic missile, which could reach any point on earth. However, North Korea has never flight-tested any intercontinental ballistic missile.

During his first trip to Asia as Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson strongly warned North Korea and threaten to use all options available to deal with it, including military pre-emptive strike. He said 20 years of diplomacy has failed and a new approach is needed.

The Washington-based think tank 38 North said last week satellite imagery indicated activity at the site’s vertical engine stand, possibly in preparation for a rocket engine test. North Korea had installed the environmental shelter in late 2015 to conceal detection of test preparations.

The United States and China pledged to work together to get the North to take “a different course” and move away from its weapons programs after U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson met his Chinese counterpart on Saturday.

Rex Tillerson Say North Korea Nuclear Program,
20 Years of Diplomacy Has Failed
 

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson met with Japan Minister for Foreign Affairs, Fumio Kishida, at the Ikura Guest House in Tokyo, Japan. The visit included a joint press conference.

U.S. Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said on Thursday the escalating threat from North Korea's nuclear program showed a clear need for a "new approach," although he stopped short of detailing what steps the Trump administration would pursue.

U.S. Secretary of State Tillerson will also engage on the usual areas of US-Chinese tension, including the country's claims to contested waters in the South China Sea; trade; the status of Taiwan; and the recent US deployment of a defensive missile system and drones to South Korea.

According to AP and Arirang: Secrof State Tillerson Visited Korea DMZ, Trumpet News reported that The lauch of four ballistic missiles by North Korea during a military drill at an undisclosed location in North Korea

North Korea threatened the US and South Korea and Japan which “merciless” attacks if an aircraft carrier steaming to the area violates the rogue nations’s “sovereignty and dignity,” according to a report.

“If they infringe on the DPRK’s sovereignty and dignity even a bit, its army will launch merciless ultra-precision strikes from ground, air, sea and underwater,” the North Korea’s state news agency KCNA said, according to a Reuters report Tuesday.

The US is taking part in military exercises with its ally South Korea that involve special forces – including SEAL Team 6 and the Army’s Rangers, Delta Force and Green Berets – as part of a plan to “decapitate” the leadership in Pyongyang, according to report.

On Tuesday, F-18 fighter jets took off from the deck of the nuclear-powered USS Carl Vinson  in a show of force as tensions have ratcheted up after North Korea conducted nuclear tests and launched missiles into the Sea of Japan (East Sea) in the past year, Reuters reported.

“While this is a routine deployment for the Carl Vinson strike group, really the centerpieace for us … is this exercise we’re doing with the ROK navy called “Foal Eagle,” said Rear Adm. James W. Kilby, referring to South Korea as the Republic of Korea, the wire service reported.

United State, South Korea, and Japan are protecting the people and preventing the terrible destruction of the environment and safe land and earth before the North Korea destructing with their Nuclear weapons to spread to the neighboring lands. The THAAD is there to preventing the land destroyer and preventing killing the people in South Korea and Japan, other wise there is no ways of preventing since the 20 years of deplomatic work didn't work and no use of any resolution around the world via UN, via US, via discussions have done so far.  WOLF EYES HD/NEW MILITARY CHANNEL shows North Korean Armed Forces vs South Korean Armed Forces 2017.

U.S. Secretary of State, Tillerson says military action against DPRK an ‘option on the table’.   US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson said "the policy of strategic patience has ended" at a joint press conference with ROK counterpart Yun Byung-se on Friday. He made the remark after visiting the Demilitarized Zone. He also said US military action against nuclear-armed Pyongyang was an "option on the table.”

 

 .

 

Why THAAD in South Korea is a Red Line for China? Why China Hates THAAD?

Daily News, January 22nd, 2017:  Dung Tran reported that:

In 2016, the South Korean government agreed to the 2017 installation of a U.S. missile defense system, Terminal High Altitude Area Defense. The objective arguments for South Korean missile defense are pretty irrefutable at this point. North Korea’s missile program is well known. Pyongyang conducted dozens of tests just last year, and even talks up intercontinental ballistic missiles and submarine-launched ballistic missiles. Its nuclear-weapons capabilities, after five tests in ten years, are well established also. And the regime’s harsh, extreme rhetoric about South Korea—turning Seoul into a “sea of fire”—is notorious. If any state in the world needs missile defense, it is South Korea.

The Chinese know all this. The Chinese also know that THAAD is not particularly effective against Chinese strategic forces. The South Korean THAAD radar will be configured around North Korea, not China, and cannot simply be “turned left”; the technology and software package is more complicated than that. The United States already has remote sensing for Chinese strategic launches in any case, so THAAD’s X-band radar adds nothing new. THAAD is also intended for use against a few incoming missiles (in their “terminal” phase, per the name of the system), not hundreds of missiles in the lift-off or boost stage, as would be the case were the Chinese to launch against the United States. American and South Korean officials have explained this to the Chinese repeatedly, and the media discussion of this has been quite extensive. It is hard to imagine that the Chinese are still unclear about the technical issues around THAAD.

U.S. Will Not Block China's Access To
Its artificial Islands in The South China Sea
 

Secretary of State Rex Tillerson will travel
to
Japan, the Republic of Korea and China from
March 15 through 19th, his first visit as
Secretary of State to the East Asia and Pacific region.

Secretary of State, Rex Tillerson, made international headline when he said, during his confirmation hearing with the senate, that United States should block China access to its manmade island in the South China Sea. But that was the first time he took a clear position toward the issue, but also was the last time. No one ever heard this again. So what is the Trump’s administration strategies on the South China Sea?

The state department announced that Secretary of State Rex Tillerson will travel to Japan, the Republic of Korea and China from March 15 through 19th, his first visit as Secretary of State to the East Asia and Pacific region.

The state department clearly said “This administration is also intent on pursuing a constructive relationship with China.” So the key words is “constructive relationship with China”. Preventing China access to those sand built island would not be seen as constructive, but more likely an act of war. So the conclusion is, the South China Sea blockade threat will not be on Rex Tillerson’s agenda during his first official visit to the region next week.

The South China Sea is a shallow but endlessly complicated body of water. Six nations , including Taiwan now compete for maritime jurisdiction based on conflicting claims to sovereignty over 51 of roughly 150 islands, atolls, and specks of rock just above the waves south and east of the mainland's coast.

At the moment, Trump’s administration has no clear strategies on the South China Sea, besides carrying on the Obama’s Pivot Asia strategies and the Freedom of Navigation. Neither which will stop or slow down China nine dash line claims in the region.

On the Freedom of Navigation, Trump’s administration deployed one of its most powerful, and advanced carrier strike group, including aircraft carrier USS Carl Vinson to patrol the South China Sea water. This move has been well received by Allies and observer. But patrolling will not stop china’s military buildup and land reclamation in this disputed water.

U.S. Deploys Most Advanced Anti-Ballistic Missile Defense System To South KoreaU.S

 

 

CAMP H.M. SMITH, Hawaii, March 7, 2017 — U.S. Pacific Command has deployed the first elements of the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense system, known as THAAD, to South Korea, implementing the U.S.-South Korean alliance’s July decision to bring the defensive capability to the Korean Peninsula.

North Korea’s accelerating program of nuclear weapons tests and ballistic missile launches constitute a threat to international peace and security and violate multiple United Nations Security Council resolutions, Pacom officials said, adding that the THAAD deployment contributes to a layered missile defense system and enhances the alliance’s defense against North Korean missile threats.

Provocative North Korean Actions

"Continued provocative actions by North Korea, to include yesterday’s launch of multiple missiles, only confirm the prudence of our alliance decision last year to deploy THAAD to South Korea," Navy Adm. Harry Harris, Pacom commander, said. "We will resolutely honor our alliance commitments to South Korea and stand ready to defend ourselves, the American homeland and our allies."

The THAAD system is a strictly defensive capability, and it poses no threat to other countries in the region, Pacom officials said. It is designed to intercept and destroy short- and medium-range ballistic missiles inside or outside the atmosphere during their final phase of flight.

Pacom joint military forces remain vigilant in the face of North Korean ballistic missile threats and provocations and are fully committed to working closely with South Korea to maintain security in the region, officials said.

------

THAAD anti-ballistic missile system would be able to shut down any ballistic missile and InterContinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) from China or North Korea up to 150 km in altitude within 200 km radius, when operating in forward-base mode. The missile carries no warhead but relies on the kinetic energy of the impact to destroy the incoming missile. It weights 900kg and can travel at a Mach 8.24, or 2.8 km/s. The fastest ICBM can travel up to Mach 23.

THAAD is a unique missile-defense system with unmatched precision, capable of countering threats around the world with its mobility and strategic battery-unit placement. It has a track record of 100% success rate. Its powerful Raytheon AN/TPU-2 radar is used to detect, track, and discriminate ballistic missile in the terminal phase of flight. Once an enemy target is identified, THAAD's Fire Control and Communications (TFCC) support team kicks in. If there is a decision to engage the incoming missile, the launcher fires an interceptor from truck-mounted launcher to destroy the incoming missiles.

-------------

According to Fox News, March 6th, 2017,  North Korean leader Kim Jong Un oversaw the March 6,  test launch of ballistic Missile and North Korea claims March 6 Missile test was practice to strike U.S. Military bases in Japan.

March 7:  U.S. Missile defense system arrived in South Korea day after North Korea Missile test.  2016:  North Korea Held two nuclear tests & more than 20 missile tests.

North Korea has deployed around 1,000 short and medium range ballistic missiles, hundreds may be capable of carrying a nuclear warhead.

 

Arirang News, Kim Hyun-bin reported that The South Korean military says North Korea fired off four ballistic missiles this morning March 6th, 2017.  Experts say It is unprecedented for North Korea to fire four missiles at the same time.

"North Korea fired four ballistic missiles into the East Sea from its Tongchang-ri missile site at 7:36 a.m. on Monday. The missiles flew around one-thousand kilometers at an altitude of 260 kilometers. Seoul and Washington are currently analyzing the launch."

A defense ministry official says that the missiles could be a mixture of mid-range Rodong missiles... and Pukguksong-2 missiles, which are an upgraded version of the North's intermediate-range Musudan ballistic missile.

Japan announced that three of the four missiles fell in its exclusive economic zone,... and one came within 250 kilometers of Japanese land.  The South Korean military has condemned the launch.

It says it's on high alert and maintaining readiness for additional provocations. "North Korea has launched another ballistic missile following the launch last month. This is a clear violation of UN Security Council resolutions and an attack on the peace and stability of South Korea and the international community."

Last Friday, the North had threatened to launch more missiles in response to the annual Key Resolve and Foal Eagle drills between Seoul and Washington.

The large-scale field training drills called Foal Eagle has started two days before on Wednesday... and the command post exercise Key Resolve will start next week.

It's common for North Korea to fire missiles during the drills, which are set to continue through April, and experts expect the North to launch several more missiles through then. This latest act is expected to solidify Seoul and Washington's commitment to deploying the U.S. missile defense system THAAD.

This issue is becoming quite a controversy here in South Korea, with Beijing slapping economic restrictions on South Korean products sold in China.

The U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley says Washington is re-evaluating how it must deal with North Korea.Speaking in New York on Wednesday, Nikki Haley added that "all options are on the table" after the regime's repeated missile tests,... while reiterating the need of THAAD deployment on the Korean peninsula.

Arirang,  Ro Aram reports detail that The envoy's comments came shortly after the UN Security Council held an emergency meeting to discuss Pyongyang's recent ballistic missile launches and a day after the council unanimously adopted a press statement condemning the provocation.

Haley urged members to redouble efforts to impose UN sanctions

"And so what the United States said during the Security Council meeting is we think that all of our counterparts need to impose the sanctions that have already been put in place. We call on all of our member states to also increase their strength in what they're going to do in terms of getting the attention of North Korea as we go forward."

Asked about China's proposal for the North to suspend its weapons activities in exchange for a halt of joint military exercises between the U.S. and South Korea, Haley said positive action should first come from Pyongyang.

 

North Korea fired a total of 5 ballistic missiles into the Sea of East  over several months.  

On March 6, 2017, two THAAD launcher trucks arrived by air transport with C-17 Cargo at Osan Air Base South Korea; earlier that day, North Koreahad lauched 4 missiles.  Admiral Harry B. Harris Jr., United States Pacific commander, issued a statement on the deployment of the system.  An article in Reuters noted that even with the THAAD defense system, a North Korean missile barrage would still pose a threat to South Korea while an article in the International Journal of SPace Politics & Policy said that South Korean forces already possess Patriot systems for point defense and Aegios destroyers cpable of stopping ballistic missiles that may come from the north.

The United States began installing the advanced antimissile system after North Korea tested four ballistic missiles on Monday.

U.S President Trump says U.S. will deal with North Korea 'very strongly'

February 13, 2017:

World leaders have issued ringing condemnations of North Korea's latest ballistic missile test.

President Trump called it a big problem,... the head of the United Nations said it was a troubling violation of the UN Security Council resolutions.

According to Arirang News, Kim Mok-yeon Report:  Following North Korea's test of a new type of ballistic missile on Sunday, U.S. President Donald Trump has vowed to deal with North Korea "very strongly".

During a joint press conference at the White House with Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Monday, Trump referred to North Korea as a "big problem".

"Obviously North Korea is a big, big problem and we will deal with it very strongly."

However, President Trump did not elaborate on how he would respond to North Korea's missile and nuclear ambitions.

Earlier in the day, the Pentagon also expressed strong regret about Pyongyang's missile test, stressing that Washington's commitment to protect the homeland and allies such as South Korea and Japan is "ironclad".

UN Secretary General Antonio Guterres called the test launch a "further troubling violation" of Security Council resolutions.

Through his spokesman on Monday, Guterres urged Pyongyang to abide by its international obligations.

According to UN On 13 February 2017, Report, UN Condemning Missile Launch by Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Secretary-General Urges Return to Denuclearization.

UN Reference SG/SM/18434-DC/3682:  The Secretary-General strongly condemns the launch of another ballistic missile by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea on 12 February.  This action is a further troubling violation of Security Council resolutions.  The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea leadership must return to full compliance with its international obligations and to the path of denuclearization.

17 October 2016 SC/12557-DC/3665:  Security Council Press Statement on Democratic People’s Republic of Korea’s Failed Ballistic Missile Launch

The following Security Council press statement was issued today by Council President Vitaly Churkin (Russian Federation)

The Secretary-General appeals to the international community to continue to address this situation in a united manner.

According to Defense Update report, February 13th, 2017 North Korea said on Monday, February 13, it had successfully test-fired a new type of medium-to-long-range ballistic missile.

The North’s state-run KCNA news agency said leader Kim Jong Un supervised the test of the Pukguksong-2, a new type of strategic weapon capable of carrying a nuclear warhead.

“North Korean leader Kim Jong-un likely ordered the task of developing a surface-to-surface Pukguksong-2 missile based on the successful SLBM test carried out in August.

We have reached an assessment that the North is in the process of developing a ballistic missile with a significantly extended strike range,” an official from Seoul’s Joint Chiefs of Staff (JCS) said.   Since solid fuel powers the new intermediate missile, its range may be greater than an SLBM that can fly 2,000-2,500 km, but shorter than a Musudan’s 3,000-3,500 km range. Solid fuel-powered SLBM represents a step forward in the North’s nuclear missile programs. A solid fuel-powered engine requires much less fueling time than a conventional liquid-fueled one. In addition to its solid fuel, the missile was “cold-launched,” or expelled from its launch tube before igniting. These factors, coupled with the Polaris-2’s road-mobility, make the missile highly mobile and capable of being launched on short notice.

U.S, Japan Condemn North Korea's fires Another Billistic Missile

February 12, 2017:

President Trump assured Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe that "America stands behind Japan, its great ally, 100%".

Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said the test was "absolutely intolerable". Japanese officials say the missile did not reach its waters.

Speaking at a joint conference during a visit to the US, Prime Minister Shinzo Abe added that President Trump had also assured him that he was committed to "further enforcing our alliance".

In South Korea, South Korea Foreign Ministers for U.S.A, Japan, South Korea's all leaders have condemned North Korea's provocative action.

Later, North Korea have announced within a day later that this is a successful land-based variant, named as Pukguksong-2 which is a new Korean's nuclear capable stategic weapon that uses high angle trajectory with due consideration to the safety of neighboring countries.

KNA also announced that this test is the upgraded extended-range version of it's submarine-launched ballistic missile which also uses solid fuel engine and allows them to verify a "feature of evading interception' and 'the mobility and operation of the new type missile launching truck'.

Millitary source from South Korea mentioned that this missile reached an altitude of 550 km (340 miles) and flew a distance of about 500 km, landing off its east coast, towards Japan.

Kim Jong Un, the leader of North Korea have recentlyannounced that his country is in the final stages to test it's ICBM during his New Year's speech. This lauch occurred during a state by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in the golf resort of President Trump in Floria and also the first missile test under Trump's administration. Both head of state presented a United front shortly after this test. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said the test was "absolutely intolerable". President Trump assured Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe that "America stands behind Japan, its great ally, 100%".

However, last January 29, 2017, For half an hour on Monday morning, or Sunday evening U.S. time, the acting Korean President Hwang Kyo-ahn spoke with U.S. President Donald Trump on the phone, to discuss their strategic military alliance and North Korea.

According to statements from both offices, Hwang congratulated President Trump on his inauguration, before stressing the continued threat from North Korea and the need for the two nations to work together to denuclearize the rogue state.

President Trump said the U.S. will always be 100-percent behind South Korea, and that the South Korea-U.S. relationship would be "better than ever."

Also, on February 6th, 2017, Trump Administration, Secretary of Defense, James Mattis: Mad Dog, Strongly Warned North Korea of Provocation which will have Overwhelming Response if it use nuclear weapons. He reassured Allies, South Korea and Japan that United States will provide protection if any attacks and committed to maintain stability on the peninsula and in the region. He said “Any attack on the United States, or our allies, will be defeated, and any use of nuclear weapons would be met with a response that would be effective and overwhelming. North Korea continues to launch missiles, develop its nuclear weapons programme, and engage in threatening rhetoric and behaviour”.

Meanwhile, U.S. Pacific Command chief suggests deploying Zumwalt stealth destroyer to S. Korea While THAAD the U.S. missile defense system, is scheduled to be stationed here this year... there are emerging reports Seoul and Washington are mulling the deployment of the USS Zumwalt. All of these should be able to help to protect South Korea and Japan as well.

Report shows that This weekend's North Korea Billistic Missile, The weapon did not appear to be an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) given its flight range.

The launch sparked a rushed Saturday night address from President Trump and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, who is visiting Mar-a-Lago and spent Saturday playing golf.

“North Korea’s most recent missile launch is absolutely intolerable,” Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said through a translator alongside President Trump.

He urged the nation to “fully comply” with U.N. security resolutions prohibiting the country from dabbling in ballistic missile tests.

The South Korea's military said Seoul and Washington were analyzing the details of the launch and whether it was a Musudan intermediate-range ballistic missile, which has a designed range of 1,800 miles.

Japan's chief cabinet secretary, Yoshihide Suga, said the missile did not land in the country's exclusive economic zone.

The missile was launched from the northwestern city of Kusong just before 8 a.m. and flew about 300 miles toward the East Sea, according to U.S. and South Korean officials.

The North repeatedly failed launching ICBMs in 2016 but one sailed 250 miles and was considered a success by South Korean and United States experts.

Sunday's launch comes a day after Trump held a summit meeting with Prime Minister Shinzo Abe and said he agreed to work to ensure strong defense against North Korea's threat.

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said in his New Year speech that the country was close to test-launching an ICBM and state media have said such a launch could come at any time.

Once fully developed, a North Korean ICBM could threaten the continental United States, which is about 5,500 miles from North Korea.

ICBMs have a minimum range of about 3,400 miles, but some are designed to travel 6,200 miles or more.

North Korea conducted two nuclear tests and a number of missile-related tests at an unprecedented rate last year and was seen by experts and officials to be making progress in its weapons capabilities, although no ballistic missile launch attempt had been detected since October.

The Pukkuksong-1 which has alternative name of KN-11 by intelligence outside of North Korea, Polaris-1 (Which is the English name translated from the original Korean name, which means North Star) or Bukgeukseong-1, is a North Korean submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) that has been successfully flight tested on 24 August 2016 and expected for operational deployment at as early as 2017 by South Korean military sources.

Pukkuksong-1 is officially recognized as a missile that went through a complete successful test on 24 Aug 2016 by South Korea, the United States, and North Korea. North Korea has never announced the actual operational range and payload as this technical information is probably considered classified. Most countries do this, e.g. the United States considers the exact operational range of its current SLBM, UGM-133 Trident II, as classified information as well.

Kim Jong Un, the leader of North Korea have recently announced that his country is in the final stages to test it's ICBM during his New Year's speech.

This launch occurred during a state by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe in the golf resort of President Trump in Florida  on February 12, 2017 and also the first missile test under Trump's administration.

Both head of state presented a united front shortly after this test. Prime Minister Shinzo Abe called the test absolutely intolerable and mentioned that President Trump 'assured me the United States will always stand with Japan 100 percent.' at the White House on Friday, However, On January 29th, 2017 President Trump also had phone conversation with Acting President South Korea Hwang Kyo Ahn that U.S.A. will be supporting South Korea 100 percent and his relationship will be better than ever.

U.S, Japan Military Successfully
Intercepted A Ballistic Missile Target

Feb 03, 2017 - The U.S. Missile Defense Agency (MDA), the Japan Ministry of Defense (MoD), and U.S. Navy sailors aboard USS John Paul Jones (DDG 53) successfully conducted a flight test Feb. 3 (Hawaii Standard Time), resulting in the first intercept of a ballistic missile target using the Standard Missile-3 (SM-3) Block IIA off the west coast of Hawaii. The flight test, designated SM-3 Block IIA Cooperative Development (SCD) Project Flight Test, Standard Missile (SFTM)-01, was the third flight test of the SM-3 Block IIA guided missile, and the first intercept test. This test also marks the first time an SM-3IIA was launched from an Aegis ship and the first intercept engagement using the Aegis Baseline 9.C2 (BMD 5.1) weapon system.

United States new Defense Secretary Jim Mattis or Mad Dog, strongly warns North Korea of Effective and Overwhelming Response if it use nuclear weapons.

He reassured Allies, South Korea and Japan that United States will provide protection if any attacks and committed to maintain stability on the peninsula and in the region.

He said “Any attack on the United States, or our allies, will be defeated, and any use of nuclear weapons would be met with a response that would be effective and overwhelming. North Korea continues to launch missiles, develop its nuclear weapons programme, and engage in threatening rhetoric and behaviour”.

Mad Dog’s warning come amid concern that North Korea could be ready to test a new ballistic missile, in what could be an early challenge for the President Trump’s administration. North Korea also appears to have restarted operation of a reactor at its main nuclear facility, Yongbyon, which produces plutonium for its nuclear weapons program.

In response, North Korea leader accused the U.S. and South Korea of inciting a pre-emptive nuclear attack in the region and said that the plan to deploy a missile defense system would push the region to the brink of a nuclear conflict.

Meanwhile, U.S. Pacific Command chief suggests deploying Zumwalt stealth destroyer to S. Korea While THAAD the U.S. missile defense system, is scheduled to be stationed here this year... there are emerging reports Seoul and Washington are mulling the deployment of the USS Zumwalt.

If the advanced American stealth destroyer sails to Korea, the reclusive state up North will have second thoughts about conducting any provoctive act. USS ZUMWALT in ACTION! DDG-1000 sea trials and Long Range Land Attack Projectile (LRLAP) weapons featured.

South Korea's defense ministry said on Monday that the latest U.S. Zumwalt destroyer could be deployed to the Korean peninsula.

Although there hasn't been an official offer yet,... the idea of deploying the Zumwalt to South Korean waters was brought up by the chief of the U.S. Pacific Command, Admiral Harry Harris, Jr. last month during a meeting with South Korean lawmakers at the U.S. Pacific Command headquarters in Hawaii.

Arirang News reported that According to the South Korean Ministry of National Defense, the Zumwalt stealth destroyer... could be deployed near South Korea's southernmost Jeju island or the southeastern district of Jinhae, about 410 kilometers south of Seoul. "There hasn't been any official proposal from the U.S., but, if there is, we will give it consideration... in terms of how it could curb nuclear and missile threats from North Korea."

The Zumwalt multipurpose ship was unveiled by the U.S. Navy in October last year.

Named after legendary Admiral Elmo Zumwalt, this United States Navy guided missile destroyer is the lead in ship in her class.

Her revolutionary look has resulted from a design emphasis on stealth – with the ship’s radar cross-section having been drastically reduced; indeed it’s said that the Zumwalt appears no larger than a small fishing boat on a radar.

In addition to possessing world’s best naval stealth capability, the vessel has a hugely advanced and formidable offensive capacity – including a Vertical Launching System (RIM-66 Standard Missiles, Evolved Sea Sparrow Missiles, RUM-139 VL-ASROC anti-submarine missiles and Tomahawk subsonic cruise missiles) AND the uniquely lethal Advanced Gun System and Long Range Land Attack Projectile.

As the leading weapons manufacturer Lockheed Martin describes below:

“The 155mm LRLAP is both the most accurate and longest-range guided projectile in U.S. Navy history, with a maximum range in excess of 63 nautical miles. It’s precision and near vertical angle of fall enables the War-fighter to defeat targets in the urban canyons of coastal cities with minimal collateral damage.

The LRLAP system provides high-volume fire support at a rate of 10 rounds per minute through the depth of the magazine. It uses the world’s most advanced, g-hardened electronics—including a global positioning system and inertial measurement unit—to withstand the punishing gun-launch environment.

155mm LRLAP provides single strike lethality against a wide range of targets, with three times the lethality of traditional 5-inch naval ballistic rounds—and because it is guided, fewer rounds can produce similar or more lethal effects at less cost. LRLAP has the capability to guide multiple rounds launched from the same gun to strike single or multiple targets simultaneously, maximizing lethal effects.”

It's chances of being detected on radar is only one-50th of conventional destroyers WHICH APPRECIATE to the special paint and unique structure.

It's expected to be armed with electromagnetic railguns starting next year... in addition to the current SM-6 ship-to-air missile, the Tomahawk long-range cruise missile and numerous anti-submarine weapons.

The first in a class of three revolutionary U.S. Navy vessels, known as the DDG 1000, was underway for the first time conducting at-sea tests and trials in December 2015.

Cutting-edge technologies enable the DDG 1000’s advanced capabilities, provide the ship’s unmatched versatility and dramatically reduce manning requirements.

The Zumwalt-class destroyers Navy's features Raytheon technologies and equipment most notably the:

    Total Ship Computing Environment – a single, encrypted network that controls all shipboard computing applications, ranging from the ship’s lights and machinery control to its radars and weapon systems. The TSCE's sailor-centric interface and high degree of automation allow the ship to run more effectively and efficiently.

    Electronic Modular Enclosures – a shipbuilding innovation that packages more than 235 individual electronics cabinets into ready-to-install, “ruggedized” units for easy integration, maintenance and upgrades. Each ship carries 16 EMEs.

    Integrated Undersea Warfare System – two sonar arrays (high and medium frequencies) in one automated, hull-mounted system designed to protect the ship from enemy mines, submarines and torpedoes. Using sophisticated algorithms, the sonar better enables Zumwalt destroyers to detect, engage and defeat an enemy threat.

    MK57 Vertical Launching System – a state-of-the-art weapon launcher designed to fire missiles for sea, land and air attacks. The MK57’s modular electronic-architecture allow Zumwalt destroyers to quickly transition to new missiles systems by minimizing the need to re-qualify their launchers. The MK57 launchers are contained and protected by the Peripheral Vertical Launch System*. The PVLS’ design and positioning make the launchers – and missiles – resistant to battle damage and safely isolates them from the crew and shipboard equipment.

    Additional significant capabilities and features include the:

    • Advanced Gun System* – each ship carries two 155 mm guns capable of firing long-range projectiles that can strike a target from a distance of 63 nautical miles.

    Integrated Power System* – often called an "all-electric" ship, the quiet and economical design of the destroyers' power system generates 100 percent of the energy needed for each vessel's propulsion, electronics and weapons systems. While steaming at 20 knots, the system provides 58 MW of reserved power, allowing for inherent flexibility and ample energy to support future technologies.

    Raytheon serves as the prime mission systems equipment integrator for all electronic and combat systems for the program Navy's most suphisticated ship requirements to life.

    During last Friday's meeting between South Korean defense minister Han Min-koo and his counterpart U.S. Secretary of Defense James Mattis, the two allies agreed to extend deterrence steps, which include deploying additional U.S. strategic military assets on the Korean peninsula.

    If the Zumwalt is deployed, Seoul believes it could have a great impact in curbing North Korea's provocations.

U.S. Defense Chief, General Jim Mattis Warns Noth Korea: US Response Will Be “Overwhelming”

According to DOD, WASHINGTON, Feb. 3, 2017 — The United States will defeat any attack on the homeland or on its allies and will meet any use of nuclear weapons with an effective and overwhelming response, Defense Secretary Jim Mattis said today in Seoul.

Defense Chief General Mattis, on his first official visit as defense secretary to South Korea and Japan, spoke in advance of a meeting on February 3rd with South Korean Defense Minister Han Min-koo.

In Seoul, the two leaders stood on a stage at separate podiums against a backdrop of U.S. and South Korean national flags. Mattis’s remarks were translated consecutively.

Iron-Clad Guarantees

“North Korea continues to launch missiles, develop a nuclear weapons program and engage in threatening rhetoric and behavior,” the secretary said.

“We stand with our peace-loving Republic of Korea ally to maintain stability on the peninsula and in the region. America's commitments to defending our allies and to upholding our extended deterrence guarantees remain iron clad,” he added.

North Korea’s threatening rhetoric and destabilizing behavior has prompted the United States and Korea to deploy terminal high-altitude area defense anti-ballistic missile systems, which Defense Chief, General Mattis called “highly effective,” to South Korea to protect its people and the 28,500 U.S. troops there who stand beside the U.S. allies.

According to the Missile Defense Agency’s website, THAAD is an element of the Ballistic Missile Defense System that can intercept and destroy ballistic missiles inside or outside earth’s atmosphere during the final, or terminal, phase of flight.

Mattis said the United States and South Korea also are committed to expanding trilateral venues of cooperation with Japan.

“The mutual defense of our nations is best served through teamwork,” the defense secretary said, noting that today he and Han will discuss other ways to make sure “our militaries are always ready to protect this republic.”

Trusted Bonds

On February 2nd and February 3rd, 2017 Morning, Defense Chief General Mattis met with South Korea’s acting president and prime minister, Hwang Kyo-ahn, National Security Advisor Kim Kwan-jin and Minister of Foreign Affairs Yun Byung-se.

“From those meetings,” the defense secretary said, “I gained a deeper sense of the trusted bonds between our countries built on shared interests and values.”

The United States stands by its commitments and with its allies, he added.

“Our alliance is a testament to mutual commitment and respect,” Mattis said, “and it is a linchpin of peace and stability in the Asia Pacific region.”

Mattis is on a four-day trip to meet with defense leaders in Japan and South Korea. The trip underscores the U.S. commitment to its enduring alliances with the two nations and strengthens cooperation among all three.

During the meetings, ‎the Defense Secretary, General, Mattis emphasized the priority that President Donald J. Trump places on the Asia-Pacific region, and on strengthening the U.S.-South Korean alliance, Ross said. Mattis also underscored that the United States remains steadfast in its commitment to defend South Korea and that the U.S. extended deterrence commitment remains ironclad, he said.

‎The South Korean officials impressed upon the defense secretary the importance of close cooperation in the face of a growing North Korea nuclear and ballistic missile threat, Ross said. The secretary responded that the alliance would continue to take defensive measures in response to this developing threat, such as the stationing of the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense anti-ballistic missile system on the Korean Peninsula, the commander said.

Mattis relayed that he had inherited an already strong alliance, and committed to spending his tenure making it stronger than ever, Ross said

------------------------

According to Arirang News, U.S. defense chief says N. Korea's nuclear issue is Washington's top security priority.

Trump's Defense Secretary, General Mattis Warns North Korea: US Response Will Be "Overwhelming" - Here is Full Statement via Video by Sgt. Ryan Sharp American Forces Network Pacific: Youtube. U.S. Defense Secretary Jim Mattis warned North Korea that any use of nuclear weapons by the North on the United States or its allies would be met with what he called an "effective and overwhelming" response.

According to U.S. army Technology: The THAAD terminal (formerly theatre) high-altitude area defense missile system is an easily transportable defensive weapon system to protect against hostile incoming threats such as tactical and theatre ballistic missiles at ranges of 200km and at altitudes up to 150km.

The THAAD system provides the upper tier of a 'layered defensive shield' to protect high value strategic or tactical sites such as airfields or populations centres. The THAAD missile intercepts exo-atmospheric and endo-atmospheric threats.

The sites would also be protected with lower and medium-tier defensive shield systems such as the Patriot PAC-3 which intercepts hostile incoming missiles at 20 to 100 times lower altitudes.

U.S. Missile Defense Agency (MDA): conducted a successful first engagement of a ballistic missile target with the Arrow-3 interceptor.

THAAD: Therminal High Altitude Area Defense: When enemies attack, governments must be ready to defend their soldiers, citizens and infrastructure. That's where THAAD comes in one of the most advanced missile defense systems in the world.

Taking the High Ground: The THAAD system provides the critical capability to defend against short and medium ranged ballistic missiles.

ABILITY TO INTERCEPT MISSILES INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE ATMOSPHERE

DEFENDS POPULATION CENTERS AND HIGH VALUE INFRASTRUCTURES

INTEROPERABLE WITH OTHER BALLISTIC MISSILE DEFENSE SYSTMES

HIGHLY MOBILE AND DEPLOYABLE WORLDWIDE

INTERCEPTING A MISSILE: The system has a track record of 100 percent mission success in flight testing since 2005:

1: Rada detects incoming threat.

2: The target is identified and engaged.

3: Interceptor is fired from truck-mounted launcher.

4: Interceptor uses kinestic energy to destroy incoming missile.

Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD), formerly Theater High Altitude Area Defense, is a United States Army anti-ballistic missile system designed to shoot down short, medium, and intermediate range ballistic missiles in their terminal phase using a hit-to-kill approach. THAAD was developed to counter Iraq's Scud missile attacks during the Gulf War in 1991. The missile carries no warhead, but relies on the kinetic energy of impact to destroy the incoming missile. A kinetic energy hit minimizes the risk of exploding conventional warhead ballistic missiles, and nuclear tipped ballistic missiles will not detonate upon a kinetic energy hit. THAAD was designed to hit Scud missiles and similar weapons.

The THAAD system is being designed, built, and integrated by Lockheed Martin Space Systems acting as prime contractor. Key subcontractors include Raytheon, Boeing, Aerojet, Rocketdyne, Honeywell, BAE Systems, Oshkosh Defense, MiltonCAT, and the Oliver Capital Consortium.

Originally a US Army program, THAAD has come under the umbrella of the Missile Defense Agency. The Navy has a similar program, the sea-based Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense System, which now has a land component as well ("Aegis ashore"). THAAD was originally scheduled for deployment in 2012, but initial deployment took place May 2008.

THAAD: Therminal High Altitude Area Defense: When enemies attack, governments must be ready to defend their soldiers, citizens and infrastructure. That's where THAAD comes in one of the most advanced missile defense systems in the world.

Bad Ambiguity Act can be North Korea's Favor
and Danger to South Korea

On December 31st, instead celebrating the New Year’s Eve, Over 1.5 Million people gathers and shout out loud that President Park’s Impeachment nullity, which was made unfair falsification. Even during the Christmas Day they have shouted out loud for the citizens voice to let out to the ROK Government that they do not want conquered by the Communist North Korea Kim Jung Un. 1.5 Million people and citizens shouting their voice “Release President Park from the falls impeachment that they made”. The citizens will not let it happened the Unfair Falsification. There have made falls Computer PC information, that they were putting together and the ROK Government made decision by the PC falls information, which was made all falsification on purpose and made the biggest conspiracy towards President Park. But, The ministers of Church, and the citizens know that she is innocent and will continue to support for President Park who are working hard and who she devoted to protecting and defending ROK.

Republic of Korea and whom she loves her country so much. Other opposition parties and Communist are mixed in so many ways which is false manipulation like true story with framing ambiguity act and making fake movie, connecting fake stories and falls PC operation to drive action to look bad President Park and their family and it is easy to make one person in the corner with falls falsifications because wrong people made just like Jesus died with human errors yet, people respect and worship after so many years with true miracles and there is hope that they believe. According to CGTN, Live, Dated January 1st, 2017.

Kim Jong Un, Leader of North Korea says the country is close to a test launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile. Kim made the statement during a televised New Year’s Day Speech.

Research and development of cutting-edge arms equipment is actively progressing and test launch preparations for an intercontinental ballistic missile rocket is in its last stage in his speech can accuse the U.S. of invading and interfering in the Asia-pacific region through South Korea.

Ironically, North Korea Leader, Kim Jong Un also said it was necessary to smash the activities of anti unification traders referring to South Korea’s impeach president Park Geun - hae.

The North Korea has been under UN sanctions since 2006 over its nuclear and ballistic missile tests being conducted its fifth and largest nuclear tests on September 9th, 2016. And also carried out a string a ballistic missile tests at an unprecedented rate in 2016.

HOWEVER, U.S. SOUTH KOREA, CHINA, JAPAN ARE CONTINUE TO WORKING MORE STRONGER THAN EVER TO PROTECTING THE PEOPLE IN SOUTH KOREA AND NEIGHBORS AROUND THE WORLD.

NORTH KOREA CONTINUE TO SHOW UP THEIR OVER POWERING NUCLEAR POWER ALTHOUGH 3 PARITES AND GLOBAL PROTECTORS CAN BE DESTROYED NORTH KOREA’S NUCLEAR POWER WITH CAREFULLY STRUCTURED SYSTEM AND HIGH TECH.

THE CLIMATE CHANGE, GLOBAL WARNING PROBLEM IS COMING FROM NUCLEAR TEST AND TEST AFTER THEIR SPREAD WILL BE HARMING AROUND THE WORLD BY THE NORTH KOREA’S IRREGULAR SYSTEMS

THE NORTH KOREA THINKING THE SKY IS UNLIMITED BUT, THE SKY IS LIMITED BY THE POLUSION SPREAD WHEN THEY HAVING TEST AFTER TEST AND EXPLOSION OF POISON GAS AND NUCLEAR EVEN SPREADING INTO the SKY and THE OCEAN.

THE SKY IS ONLY ONE WITHIN ONE EARTH THAT WE HAVE WHAT GOD CREATED. THE HUMAN IS SPREADING THE POISON AND DESTROY which WILL MAKE WORST land, occures earthquake, landslide, birth defact, strange desease, shrinking the ocean, also causes FOG AROUND THE WORLD from the nuclear test from North Korea and even propaganda effect. THAT IS WHY KEEPING EARTH FRESH AND CLEAN AIR IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP HUMAN LIFE AND ANNIMALS LIFE ALIVE further keeping safe homeland in South Korea and Global world safe.

MANY PEOPLE, around the world and Many God believers hoping that South Korea is not becoming the communist parties….. Hoping The own flag of Republic of Korea(Tae Guk Ki ) fly high instead candle lights of danger propaganda and destroying the beautiful South Korea environment.

US Remains Strong support for any Circumstances

Arirang News dated Dec. 8th, 2016 reports that The U.S. State Department says Washington's alliance with South Korea remains strong and the result will not affect their relationship.

State Department spokesperson Elizabeth Trudeau said Thursday, local time,... that the political crisis in Korea is an internal matter for the Korean people.

When asked about how the corruption scandal could affect talks on North Korea,... Trudeau said the alliance's position of denuclearizing North Korea remains unchanged.

Park Jong-hong, Arirang News.

The U.S. says the impeachment vote will not sway its bilateral alliance with South Korea.

The State Department said the relationship is "strong," "deep" and "solid" despite the leadership crisis in Seoul and predicts the outcome will not have any impact on the two countries' ties.

State Department spokeswoman Elizabeth Trudeau made the comments Thursday at a regular briefing.

Asked if the South's political situation could affect the North Korean nuclear issue, Trudeau said the U.S. position on the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula is well known and the position has not changed.

The Current situation of South Korea and having so many complicated environment which The North Korea is looking for more confusion and bad environment within Korean Government and people. That is the most venerable situation what North Korea is looking for.

President Park has been keeping strong Defense program and continue to working hard what South Korea should have been in order to keeping South Korea peace and secure. South Korea has been more strong defense homeland security. North Korea is looking for more mass environment and fighting each other and complicated situation for Government but, it is very important concentrate and protecting the country and stay strong. South Korea should continue what the country needs for more secure land and keeping together world peace with embracing what has working together.

Chinese diplomat: Jieyi Liu says that Since the beginning of this year North Korea (DPRK) has conducted two nuclear tests and multiple ballistic missile tests. On the other hand certain parties have kept strengthening military deployment, increasing military presence, and scaling up military exercises. As a result the confrontation on the Peninsula has intensified, plunging into a vicious circle. This situation must be changed.

The familiar system should be kept until the term is completed and the responsible should be completed with their strong relationship without the complication for foreign diplomat and homeland security. Hope President Park her endurance will continue to serve for her country and keeping peace homeland that she loves. We are all human and no one is expected perfect behavior except our God and there is forgiveness within human needs like your own family is forgiving as necessary.

Meanwhile U.S. and other nations are continue to working hard to protect South Korea in order to save human lives and preventing from the Nuclear danger situations. When North Korea explored Nuclear without the regulation procedures and exposed worst environment; i.e.,, earthquack, mud slide, exposing radiation, birth defect, pollution, Disabling fuctions and bodys, and unknown disasters will happen which we cannot handle by human, and it will be too late situation. Concentrating home land and global security is much needed at this critical time now.

China: Jieyi Liu: Since the beginning of this year DPRK has conducted two nuclear tests and multiple ballistic missile tests. On the other hand certain parties have kept strengthening military deployment, increasing military presence, and scaling up military exercises. As a result the confrontation on the Peninsula has intensified, plunging into a vicious circle. This situation must be changed.

    South Korea, Japan Sign Pact to Track North Korea

      According to Kim Hyun-bin, Arirang News on November 4th, 2016: The commander of the U.S. Forces Korea says THAAD the missile defense system designed to counter North Korea's nuclear threats, will be deployed to the peninsula within eight to ten months. Kim Hyun-bin shares with us General Vincent Brooks' remarks. During a breakfast meeting on Friday,... Commander, Vincent Brooks said that THAAD will be deployed to South Korea in the first half of next year at the earliest. He also said that the THAAD base here will be larger than the one in Guam. "You're gonna see the deployment of a THAAD battery. This is an alliance decision. It will come in the next eight to ten months. That is an army unit and a larger configuration than the one in Guam."

      The allies agreed to deploy THAAD back in July to better counter North Korea's ever-growing nuclear and ballistic missile capabilities. The U.S. commander pointed out that North Korea has the fourth-largest arsenal of conventional weapons in the world and emphasized that North Korea's continuous provocations are a very direct threat not only to South Korea, but also the entire region and the United States. He stressed the importance of further enhancing the alliance between Seoul and Washington to counter those threats. The regime has conducted two nuclear tests and over 20 ballistic missile launches this year alone,... in its quest to develop a nuclear-tipped intercontinental ballistic missile.

      Meanwhile, After Election, Arirang News also reported that Trump's nat'l security advisor calls S. Korea-U.S. relations 'vital alliance'

      President Elect Donald Trump selected national security advisor says the two countries' alliance will remain rock solid... and has room to become even stronger over the next four years. President Elect Donald Trump understands that countering North Korea's nuclear and missile development will be a top priority for the incoming administration. South Korea's deputy chief of the National Security Office under the presidential office of Cheong Wa Dae, Cho Tae-yong,... and Michael Flynn,... his soon-to-be counterpart in the United States,... met on Friday, local time, with the North Korean nuclear issue topping the agenda.

      Speaking to reporters after the meeting,... Cho said Flynn characterized the Seoul-Washington alliance as vital.... and an alliance that needs to be strengthened. ""We have come to the consensus that continuing to put strong and systematic pressure on the North Korean leadership is a strategic goal for the alliance." General Flynn also told the South Korean delegation that the incoming Trump administration will tackle North Korea as a top priority as Pyongyang continues to pursue its nuclear and missile programs.

      While on the campaign trail,... South Korea had some concern that President-elect Trump expressed some negative views about Washington's security commitments overseas,... even threatening to withdraw some or all of the 28-thousand U.S. troops stationed in South Korea... if Seoul does not cover more of the financial burden.

      However, President Elect Donald Trump also vowed to look closely at the free trade agreement between the two countries,... saying the FTA,... which has been in effect since 2012,... was a "job-killing deal" and "a disaster" for the United States.

      Since his election victory,... political watchers have cautiously suggested that President-elect Trump has softened his campaign rhetoric. Cho said his delegation explained to the Trump transition team the benefits the FTA brings to both sides. The South Korean delegation which is set to leave the U.S. on Saturday, They have been holding numerous meetings already to ensure the Seoul-Washington military alliance and their strong economic ties continue under the Trump administration.

Remarks by Secretary Carter and Minister Han
in a Press Conference in the Pentagon Briefing

    Press Operations

    Secretary of Defense Ash Carter; Republic of Korea Minister of National Defense Han Min Koo

    Oct. 20, 2016 First, we discussed the continued threat from North Korea. Indeed, North Korea's nuclear tests and ballistic missile launches, like the one that failed last evening, threaten the stability of the Korean Peninsula and the broader Asia-Pacific region. As with previous tests, we strongly condemn last night's attempt, which even in failing, violated several U.N. Security Council resolutions, and affirm that this latest provocation only strengthens our resolve to work together with our Republic of Korea allies to maintain stability on the peninsula. Indeed, the United States remains committed to defending our allies against any threat with the full spectrum of American military might. That's why we're adapting our force structure on the peninsula, most recently by agreeing as allies to deploy THAAD to defend against North Korean missile threats. And that's why we're ensuring we remain ready to, as we say, "fight tonight." And we're working together to achieve a conditions-based transfer of wartime operational control.

    And that's why the United States is reaffirming its ironclad commitment to defend South Korea with our extended deterrence capabilities. We agreed yesterday to establish the Extended Deterrent Strategy and Consultation Group through which we will discuss further steps we can take.

    Make no mistake, any attack on America or our allies will not only be defeated, but any use of nuclear weapons will be met with an overwhelming and effective response.

    According to South China Morning Post: PUBLISHED : Monday, 24 October, 2016, 4:38pm UPDATED : Monday, 24 October, 2016, 10:51pm China's coal imports from North Korea fall amid calls for tougher sanctions over nuclear tests Beijing announced in April it would ban North Korean coal imports, but has previously made exemptions for deliveries intended for ‘livelihood purposes’ China’s coal imports from North Korea in September fell by more than a quarter from August, customs data showed, after a push from the United States last month to punish North Korea for its recent nuclear test with a tougher ban on its coal exports. Data from the General Administration of Customs released on Monday showed China imported 1.8 million tonnes of anthracite coal from North Korea last month. That was 27 per cent below the 2.465 million tonnes imported in August, which was the highest since at least the start of 2016.

    The United States and Japan have been holding talks in Tokyo on North Korea's nuclear and missile threats,... and other issues of mutual interest. South Korean Vice Foreign Minister Lim Sung-nam and his U.S. and Japanese counterparts Tony Blinken and Shinsuke Sugiyama were said to have discussed additional sanctions on Pyongyang,... with heightened tensions since the regime conducted its fifth nuclear test in September. The talks are the fifth of their kind since the first gathering held in Washington in April 2015. On Wednesday,... Lim and Blinken, as well as Lim and Sugiyama held separate bilateral talks,... during which they agreed to work together to strengthen punitive measures on North Korea.


North Korea Threat South Korea Ash land When It’s Defends Nuclear Warhead Weapon by THAAD
THAAD PROVIDES EFFECTIVE DEFENSE
AGAINST TBM THREATS

    According to Arirang News, On Oct 1st, during the 68th Army Day’s Event: President Park Geun-hye said that THAAD is the minimum self-defense measure needed to protect our citizens. It’s a must to better counter North Korea’s attacks.

    Per Arirang News in July, it was already announced that THAAD will be Golf Course selected as new location for U.S. missile defense system at the Lotte Skyhill Country Club in the northern part of Seongju, Gyeongsangbuk-do Province.

    The decision was made after a survey of two other possible candidate locations. The golf course lies 296 kilometers southeast of Seoul and is around 680 meters above sea.

    The location is far from residential areas, in response to Seongju residents’ concerns about the potential health problems posed by THAAD’s radar system. When the official announcement is made the deployment is still likely to face opposition from residents of the nearby town of Gimcheon who had threatened to protest if the golf were selected.

    Another barrier the defense ministry faces is cost.

    The golf course is valued at over 80 million U.S. dollars, and the government will have to gain parliamentary approval for such a large budget outlay.

    THAAD is expected to be deployed to South Korea by the end of next year to better protect agains North Korea’s nuclear and missile threats.

    President Park Geun-Hye expressed that The most efficient means of reining in North Korea’s madness is a unified defense based on the South Korea-U.S. Alliance. We must reinforce the alliance and maintain full defense readiness to suppress North Korea’s nuclear development, establish permanent peace and achieve denuclearization on the Korean peninsula.

    According to U.S. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE News, July 8th, 2016:
    U.S. to Deploy THAAD Missile Battery to South Korea

    WASHINGTON, July 8, 2016 — Based on recent consultations, the United States and South Korea have made an alliance decision to deploy a Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense missile battery to U.S. Forces Korea as a defensive measure to ensure the security of South Korea and that of its people, and to protect alliance military forces from North Korea's weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missile threats, according to a Defense Department news release issued July 7.

    North Korea's nuclear test and multiple ballistic missile tests, including the recent intermediate-range ballistic missile launches, highlight the grave threat that North Korea poses to the security and stability of South Korea as well as to the entire Asia-Pacific region, the release said.

    THAAD provides the ballistic missile defense system with a globally transportable, rapidly deployable capability to intercept and destroy ballistic missiles inside or outside the atmosphere during the final phase of flight, according to DoD’s Missile Defense Agency website. More detailed information you may click to view.

    THAAD Intercepting A Missile

    The system has a track record of 100 percent mission success all time in flight testing since 2005.

    1: RADAR: Radar detects incoming threat.

    2: TFCC (THAAD fire control and Communications support equipment) The target is identified and engaged.

    3: TFCC and Launcher: ( THAAD fire control and Communications support equipment) Interceptor is fired from truck-mounted launcher.

    4: Interceptor uses kinetic energy to destroy incoming missile.

    After bilateral meeting on September 6th, 2016, Both U.S.A and South Korea have agreed to maintain a strong deterrence posture by enhancing both US and Korea combined defense capabilities to include the deployment of the THAAD system.

    Remarks by President Obama and President Park of the Republic of Korea
    After Bilateral Meeting

    Landmark Mekong Riverside Hotel

    Vientiane, Laos

    5:01 P.M. ICT

    PRESIDENT OBAMA: It is always a pleasure to meet with my friend and partner, President Park of the Republic of Korea, and her delegation. As we all know, the ROK is one of America’s oldest and closest allies. Our alliance remains the lynchpin of peace and security not just on the Korean Peninsula, but across the region.

    In recent years, we’ve worked together to strengthen our alliance, and to ensure our readiness against any threat. For instance, our missile defense cooperation -- THAAD -- is a purely defensive system to deter and defend against North Korean threats. And today, I want to reaffirm that our commitment to the defense and security of North South Korea, including extended deterrence, is unwavering.

    We had extensive discussions about the recent provocations by the DPRK, and we are united in condemning North Korea’s continued missile launches, including this week while China was hosting the G20. These launches are provocative. They’re a violation of North Korea’s obligations internationally. Its nuclear and missile programs are a threat to not only the ROK, but to Japan, other allies in the region, partners in the region, and to the United States.

    So we are going to work diligently together with the most recent U.N. sanctions that are already placing North Korea under the most intense sanctions regime ever. We’re going to work together to make sure that we’re closing loopholes and making them even more effective. And President Park and I agreed that the entire international community needs to implement these sanctions fully and hold North Korea accountable.

    North Korea needs to know that provocations will only invite more pressure and further deepen its isolation, but that if it is willing to recognize its international obligations and the importance of denuclearization in the Korean Peninsula, the opportunities for us to dialogue with them are there. And we do not have any interest in an offensive approach to North Korea. We want peace and security for all peoples, but their current behavior has not been ones that are conducive to the kinds of dialogue and diplomacy that both the ROK and the United States would prefer..

    Beyond the region, our alliance is a global one. We stand together against ISIL. We stand together in providing humanitarian assistance for the Syrian people and for refugees, promoting global health and fighting climate change. The ROK has been an excellent partner in helping Afghanistan stabilize. It has been an outstanding partner on global health and security issues. We talked about the leadership summit that we’ll be hosting at the end of this month on refugees, and the important contributions that the Republic of Korea are making.

    And let me just say that as I wrap up over the next several days my last trip to Asia, what a pleasure it’s been to work with President Park and her team. They have been steady, consistent partners, and President Park has been a stalwart ally and friend on a whole range of issues. And her steady and wise leadership I think has greatly contributed to the strengthening of what was already one of our most important alliances. So I want to thank her personally for the excellent contributions she’s made to advancing all the various issues that we’ve been working on. And I want to thank her team as well that worked very hard behind the scenes to make that happen.

    PRESIDENT PARK: Today, I met with President Obama and held fruitful discussions on how we will respond to the common challenges that confront both our nations. In particular, it was a pleasure to reconfirm that the Korea-U.S. alliance is stronger than ever, and is playing a pivotal role for the peace and stability of not only the Korean Peninsula, but the entire region.

    North Korea’s nuclear test earlier this year and continued missile launches are fundamentally threatening the security of both the Korean Peninsula and Northeast Asia. I would like to make it clear that Korea and the U.S. will respond resolutely to any provocations by North Korea by utilizing all means..

    North Korea launched another -- missiles again yesterday. I send a stern warning that the continuation of such reckless provocations will lead North Korea down the path of self-destruction. I expressed my gratitude to President Obama once again for clearly expressing today the unwavering commitment of the U.S. for the defense of the Republic of Korea. President Obama and I have agreed to maintain a strong deterrence posture by enhancing our combined defense capabilities to include the deployment of the THAAD system.

    Next, the faithful implementation of U.N. Security Council Resolution 2270 is vital to deterring North Korea’s advancement of its nuclear and missile capabilities, and it is meaningful that our two countries have been engaged in close cooperation in this regard. The United States and Korea have agreed to faithfully implement U.N. Security Council resolutions, and further strengthen our efforts to seal the loopholes and sanctions implementation even more tightly. Taking into consideration the importance of China’s role in effective implementation of sanctions and the resolution process of the North Korean nuclear issue, our two countries have agreed to continue to communicate with China through various channels.

    Regarding the human rights situation of North Korean people, I would like to express my appreciation for the efforts made by many in the United States, both in and out of government. And I plan to further strengthen cooperation with the United States and the international community on the basis of our North Korean Human Rights Act, which entered into force on September 4th. The improvement of the human rights situation for North Korean people will be a critical stepping stone for our path toward unification, and unification will provide opportunities for North Korean people to be treated equally.

    Lastly, in order for the Korea-U.S. alliance to contribute to a greater peace and broader prosperity, the President and I have agreed to not only expand cooperation in new frontiers such as global health, climate change and space, but also expand our roles in areas such as refugees, peacekeeping operations and development cooperation. I find it meaningful that through our discussions today, I was able to confirm yet once again that the foundations of our bilateral relationship are rock-solid.

    I once again express my respect for President Obama, for the vision and leadership that he has shown for our alliance.

    North Korea Standardized Terrifying
    Nuclear warhead using with Ballistic Missile

      The DPRK's tested warheads that could fit on 'ballistic rockets' - North Korean media. North Korea claimed it had tested a “standardized” nuclear weapon to be mounted on ballistic rockets, during an announcement on Korean Central Television (KCTV) on Friday.

      Meanwhile North Korea Military making their military show off however, South Korea President Park will be ready with no time which U.S and UN will support back on in any situation in any time. South Korea All parties are working together even include THAAD launching in South Korea which North Korea ignors whatever regulations to apply for around the global evironmental issues and rules although nuclear has been destroying the earth whenever test is going in the small land what they have, the detonations effecting neighbors and all around like mudslide, earth quake, radiation to the generation to the generalion for defected human birth may be the case problem.

EVEN LARGER LAND USA SEEKING HEALTH AND GREENENVIRONMENT WITHOUT ABUSING.

      South Korea's Defense Ministry released a tunnel map from captured footage by the North's official Korean Central Television. The Defense Ministry analyzed the map, which shows the tunnel on the western side of the nuclear test site in Punggye-ri, where they think the second test was carried out. The tunnel is a one-kilometer (0.6-mile), one-way path, winding inwards and leading to the test pit. There are 10 gates in the path that are supposed to close, including the entrance, in order to block the hazardous radioactivity from the atomic test and absorb impact from the explosion. There are also three traps to collect debris. The pit at the end of the path is ground zero for the test. The 10 gates could possibly be made of strong steel or concrete to prevent radioactive emissions.

    Statement by the President on North Korea's Nuclear Test

    For Immediate Release

    September 09, 2016

    The United States condemns North Korea's September 9 nuclear test in the strongest possible terms as a grave threat to regional security and to international peace and stability. North Korea stands out as the only country to have tested nuclear weapons this century. Today's test, North Korea's second this year, follows an unprecedented campaign of ballistic missile launches, which North Korea claims are intended to serve as delivery vehicles for nuclear weapons targeting the United States and our allies, the Republic of Korea and Japan. As Commander in Chief, I have a responsibility to safeguard the American people and ensure that the United States is leading the international community in responding to this threat and North Korea's other provocations with commensurate resolve and condemnation.

    To be clear, the United States does not, and never will, accept North Korea as a nuclear state. Far from achieving its stated national security and economic development goals, North Korea's provocative and destabilizing actions have instead served to isolate and impoverish its people through its relentless pursuit of nuclear weapons and ballistic missile capabilities. Today's nuclear test, a flagrant violation of multiple UN Security Council Resolutions, makes clear North Korea's disregard for international norms and standards for behavior and demonstrates it has no interest in being a responsible member of the international community.

    Last night I returned from the G-20 and East Asia Summit meetings in Asia, where my counterparts and I were united in our call for North Korea to return to the path of denuclearization. Upon hearing the news of the test, I had the opportunity to consult separately via phone with Republic of Korea (ROK) President Park Geun-Hye and Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. We agreed to work with the UN Security Council, our other Six-Party partners, and the international community to vigorously implement existing measures imposed in previous resolutions, and to take additional significant steps, including new sanctions, to demonstrate to North Korea that there are consequences to its unlawful and dangerous actions. I restated to President Park and Prime Minister Abe the unshakable U.S. commitment to take necessary steps to defend our allies in the region, including through our deployment of a Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) battery to the ROK, and the commitment to provide extended deterrence, guaranteed by the full spectrum of U.S. defense capabilities.

      Secretary of General Ban Ki-Moon condemming North Korea's Nuclear tests

    On September 9th, 2016: Secretary of State, Ban, Kim Moon urged DPRK to refrain from further nuclear testing, and to join the 183 States Parties who have signed the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT).

    “I sincerely hope that this will serve as the final wake-up call to the international community to outlaw all nuclear testing by bringing the CTBT into force,” he said.

    10 September 2016 – The United Nations Security Council has strongly condemned the Democratic People's Republic of Korea's (DPRK) nuclear test on 9 September and said it is a clear violation of repeated calls on the country to halt such activity.

    In a press statement issued late yesterday evening, after the Council held urgent consultations on the situation, the 15-member body underlined that the test is a clear violation and "in flagrant disregard" of Security Council resolutions 1718 (2006), 1874 (2009), 2087 (2013), 2094 (2013) and 2270 (2016), as well as of the non-proliferation regime.

    “Therefore a clear threat to international peace and security continues to exist,” the statement said.

    Furthermore, members the Council also recalled that they had previously expressed their determination to take further significant measures in the event of another DPRK nuclear test.

    UN report:

    31 August 2016 – The United Nations today spoke up for an early entry into force a global treaty that bans nuclear explosions on the Earth’s surface, in the atmosphere, underwater and underground, with a senior official describing the treaty as a “low-hanging fruit.”

    “I urge Member States to do everything possible to facilitate a breakthrough,” Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon told a General Assembly meeting to mark the International Day against Nuclear Tests in a message read on his behalf by the UN High Representative for Disarmament Affairs, Kim Won-soo.

    “We welcome any and all efforts to bring about a complete testing ban,” said Mr. Ban in the message.

    To date, 183 countries have signed the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT) and 164 have ratified it. For the treaty to enter into force, ratification is required from the so-called Annex 2 States. Of these, China, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Egypt, India, Iran, Israel, Pakistan and the United States, have yet to ratify it.

    In the message, the Secretary-General urged immediate action by the eight remaining Annex II countries.

    “Any one of them can and should be the first to ratify,” he said. “That will encourage others to follow suit and generate a cascade of benefits for the broader disarmament and non-proliferation agenda.”

    According to Youtube, DPRK news , the North Korea tested the 5th Nuclear test on September 5, 2016 which the North Korea still convincing that they had right to do the nuclear test.

    September 6th, 2016: Director-General of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) Yukiya Amano also spoke out against the test, calling it a “deeply troubling and regrettable act.”

    “This is in clear violation of numerous UN Security Council resolutions and in complete disregard of the repeated demands of the international community,” said Mr. Amano in a statement issued by IAEA.

    Recalling Security Council’s calls on DPRK to not conduct nuclear tests and to abandon all nuclear weapons and existing nuclear programmes in a complete, verifiable and irreversible manner, he urged the country “to fully implement all relevant resolutions of the UN Security Council and the IAEA.”

    However, CNN, Yahoo news, Arirang News, Bloonberg, The test was conducted and confirmed 9 September 2016 Morning, which is the 68th anniversary of the founding of North Korea.

    The media report, USGS shows that The government of North Korea conducted a nuclear detonation on September 9, 2016 at the Punggye-ri Nuclear Test Site, approximately 50 kilometres (30 miles) northwest of Kilju City in Kilju County.

The county seat is Kilju Town.The area around Kilju was part of the ancient Goguryeo kingdom, and was long inhabited by various Jurchen tribes. In 1107 it was annexed by Goryeo, who gave it its current name (meaning "province of good fortune"). Kilju was then placed into North Hamgyong, where it remains to this day. During the Japanese occupation, the county was used for manufacturing telecommunications equipment and electric insulation. The average annual temperature is 7.5 °C (-7.6 °C in January and 22.2 °C in August).

    Kilju is located in the southern part of North Hamgyong. It borders Myŏngch'ŏn on the east, Kimch'aek and Hwadae to the south, Myŏnggan (Hwasŏng) and Ŏrang to the north. To the west it borders Tanch'ŏn in South Hamgyŏng and Paegam in Ryanggang.

    Kilju stands at the junction of the Hamgyŏng Mountains and the Maryŏng Mountains, and its northwestern region is mountainous.

    According to News Inside: by Arirang News, dated On September 9th, 2016:President Park Geun-hye stated that "In order for Pyongyang to take the decision to abandon its nuclear program, it is important to give it a strong unified message." which was said at the Eastern Economic Forum on September 3rd, 2016 which is critical and devastrated around The World leaders and shares joint commitment against North Korea's nuclear and misscle program.

    We are Not sure, if North Korea is even afraid of China's leadership that China even joined UN in condemming North Korea ballistic missile tests and China also accepted UN Security Council press statement on North Korea.

    North Korea's previous nuclear test was conducted 8 months earlier in January 2016 and drew sharp international condemnations. Despite calls from China and Russia to return to the six-party talks, North Korea maintained its nuclear and missile ambitions:

    On 22 June 2016, North Korea successfully launched its land-based medium-range missile Hwasong-10 to an altitude of 1,413.7 kilometres (878.4 mi) and a range of 400 kilometres (250 mi). The missile test demonstrates that the missile's range could be as far as about 3500 km.

    Even though some experts are skeptical about whether Hwasong-10 has the capability to deliver the warhead to the US Guam military base at the configuration used in this test, they agreed that Guam is in the range if the weight of the warhead can be reduced from 650 kg to less than 500 kg.

    On 24 August 2016, North Korea successfully launched its submarine-launched ballistic missile Pukkuksong-1 into Japan's Air Defense Identification Zone with a 500 kilometres (310 mi) range and similar altitude. Using a more reliable cold launch technology and solid-fuel rocket, North Korea is developing its technology towards having a second-strike deterrence. The test was the first time North Korea was able to develop a solid fuel rocket. It had previously been assumed that North Korea was only able to develop liquid fuel missile, as evidenced of Rodong-1.

    The United States and South Korean biannual joint military exercise—Foal Eagle in February until April and Ulchi-Freedom Guardian in August until September—concluded on 2 September 2016. North Korea regularly raised strong objections to the drills because it interprets the drills as "hostile forces are preparing for an invasion into North Korea".

    On 5 September 2016, North Korea fired three consecutive Rodong-1 missiles with high accuracy. This marked the Rodong-1 as a credible and matured missile suitable for operational deployment since its first successful launch in 1993. The United Nations Council condemned North Korea's missile launches, to which North Korea has vowed for 'new measures' as a response.

    The test was conducted on 9 September 2016, which is the 68th anniversary of the founding of North Korea.

    On September 9th, 2016 9 September 2016 – Strongly condemning another underground nuclear test by the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), United Nations Secretary-General, Ban Ki-moon reiterated his call on the leadership of the country to reverse its course and commit to a path of denuclearization.

    “This is yet another brazen breach of the resolutions of the Security Council,” underlined the Secretary-General, in his remarks to the press at the UN Headquarters today.

      Republic of Korea and the United States
      Make Alliance Decision to Deploy THAAD
      to Korea Press Operations

    According to DOD News Release No: NR-254-16 July 7, 2016

    North Korea's nuclear test and multiple ballistic missile tests, including the recent intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM) launches, highlight the grave threat that North Korea poses to the security and stability of the Republic of Korea (ROK) and the entire Asia-Pacific region.

    In response to the evolving threat posed by North Korea, the United States and the ROK have been conducting formal consultations regarding the feasibility of a Terminal High-Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) battery operated by U.S. Forces Korea (USFK) since early February, as a measure to improve the missile defense posture of the ROK-U.S. alliance.

    Based on these consultations, the ROK and the United States made an alliance decision to deploy THAAD to USFK as a defensive measure to ensure the security of the ROK and its people, and to protect alliance military forces from North Korea's weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missile threats.

    Through the past months of review, the ROK-U.S. Joint Working Group confirmed the military effectiveness of THAAD on the Korean Peninsula and is in the final stage of preparing its recommendation for both the ROK minister of national defense and the U.S. secretary of defense regarding the optimal site in the Republic of Korea for the system's effectiveness and for environmental, health, and safety requirements.

    The ROK and the United States are working closely to ensure the swift deployment of THAAD and will develop specific operational procedures.

    When the THAAD system is deployed to the Korean Peninsula, it will be focused solely on North Korean nuclear and missile threats and would not be directed towards any third party nations. The THAAD deployment will contribute to a layered missile defense that will enhance the alliance's existing missile defense capabilities against North Korean missile threats.

    .

    S. Korea, U.S. confirm THAAD deployment
    to Korean peninsula

    Arirang News July 6th, 2016: South Korea and the United States have confirmed that the U.S. missile defense system known as Terminal High Altitude Area Defense or THAAD WILL be deployed to the Korean Peninsula.

    The decision follows months of negotiations between the two allies.

    THAAD is designed to take down incoming North Korean missil which is to protect South Korea citizens and U.S. Forces Korea from North Korea's weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missiles, the two allies have decided to deploy THAAD to the Korean Peninsula."

    The deputy minister added that the goal is to deploy THAAD to the Korean peninsula before the end of 2017.

    A joint working group has been working on that since February.

    Now that the decision to bring THAAD here has been finalized,... the group will focus all of its attention on finding a suitable location.

    Here's U.S. Army commander Thomas Vandal on that:

    "This decision is an important milestone but there is a lot of work to do. We will endeavor to identify a suitable site in the Republic of Korea that offers the greatest military effectiveness for THAAD and meets environmental health and safety standards."

    South Korea's defense ministry says they are in the final stages of making the decision, and will make an announcement within a couple of weeks at the latest.

    Experts have suggested either Chilgok in Gyeongsangbuk-do province, as it could cover U.S. bases in Daegu and most of the South Korean peninsula,... or Pyeongtaek in Gyeonggi-do province..

Russia informed Washington in mid October it will not attend the summit. President Obama hosted President Xi Jinping of the People’s Republic of China for a bilateral meeting on the margins of the Nuclear Security Summit on March 31, 2016.

Accoriding to Wochit News, WSJ Live, and Fox News, dated March 31, 2016:

The annual Nuclear Security Summit was given on Thursday in Washington which The increasingly heated provocations from North Korea emerged as a centerpiece of the nuclear Security Summit in Washington DC.

President Obama is hosting a series of meetings with the leaders of several Asian nations to talk about efforts to prevent North Korea from becoming a bigger nuclear threat. The summit is aimed at reducing the world's nuclear weapons. Vladimir Putin abstained from the summit saying he doesn't want to be part of any talks led by the United States. President Obama said their two countries remain committed to completing an agreement to continue lowering their Cold War-era nuclear arsenals. The US and Russian missiles make up about 90 percent of the world's nuclear weapons. Meanwhile, Chinese President XI Jinping and U.S. President Barack Obama, pledged increased cooperation on North Korea.

WJS Live reported on April 1st that President Obama addressed the threat of terrorism and global nuclear proliferation at the Nuclear Security Summit in Washington D.C. On Friday, noting the progress achieved since the last summit six years ago.

According to Yahoo news, dated April 1, 2016:

SEOUL, South Korea – North Korea fired a short-range missile into the sea and tried to jam GPS navigation signals in South Korea on Friday, Seoul officials said, hours after U.S., South Korean and Japanese leaders pledged to work closer together to prevent North Korea from advancing its nuclear and missile programs.

Officials said the attempt to jam GPS signals, which began Thursday, did not cause any major disruptions of South Korean military, aviation and sea transport and telecommunication systems. However, more than 130 fishing boats reported problems with their navigation systems and some were forced to return to their ports, the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries said.

South Korea's Defense Ministry called the jamming attempt a provocation that threatened public safety and military operations in the South. A ministry statement warned North Korea to immediately stop the jamming efforts or face unspecified consequences.

South Korea has blamed North Korea for several previous jamming attempts. This week's jamming signals are the first since 2012, according to South Korea's Science Ministry. North Korean state media had no immediate comment.

North Korea also fired a surface-to-air missile off its east coast on Friday, three days after it launched a projectile that hit land in its northeast, South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff said without elaborating.

North Korea has launched a number of short-range missiles and other projectiles since the start last month of annual South Korea-U.S. military drills it views as a rehearsal for an invasion. It also has repeated threats of nuclear strikes on Seoul and Washington and warned it will test a nuclear warhead and ballistic missiles capable of carrying it.

This year's drills, set to run until late this month, are the biggest ever and come after North Korea conducted a nuclear test and long-range rocket launch earlier this year.

In Washington, President Barack Obama met Thursday with the leaders of South Korea and Japan to discuss ways of countering North Korea's nuclear threat. Obama also met Chinese President Xi Jinping and both called for North Korea to give up its nuclear weapons. China also agreed to fully implement recent economic restrictions imposed by the U.N. Security Council against North Korea. The Asian leaders are in Washington for a two-day nuclear summit that opens Friday.

According to the White House Immediate Release, on Marh 16, 2016, Statement by the Press Secretary on the Executive Order Entitled "Blocking Property of the Government of North Korea and the Workers' Party of Korea, and Prohibiting Certain Transactions With Respect to North Korea” which the President issued an executive order imposing robust new sanctions on North Korea. This E.O. is part of our response to North Korea’s January 6 nuclear test and February 7 launch using ballistic missile technology, and it enables U.S. implementation of UN Security Council Resolution 2270 and the North Korea Sanctions and Policy Enhancement Act of 2016.

These actions are consistent with our longstanding commitment to apply sustained pressure on the North Korean regime. The U.S. and the global community will not tolerate North Korea’s illicit nuclear and ballistic missile activities, and we will continue to impose costs on North Korea until it comes into compliance with its international obligations.

BLOCKING PROPERTY OF THE GOVERNMENT OF NORTH KOREA

AND THE WORKERS' PARTY OF KOREA, AND PROHIBITING CERTAIN TRANSACTIONS WITH RESPECT TO NORTH KOREA

For Immediate Release

March 16, 2016

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, including the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (50 U.S.C. 1701 et seq.) (IEEPA), the National Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1601 et seq.), the United Nations Participation Act of 1945 (22 U.S.C. 287c) (UNPA), the North Korea Sanctions and Policy Enhancement Act of 2016 (Public Law 114-122), section 212(f) of the Immigration and Nationality Act of 1952 (8 U.S.C. 1182(f)), and section 301 of title 3, United States Code, and in view of United Nations Security Council Resolution (UNSCR) 2270 of March 2, 2016,

I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, find that the Government of North Korea's continuing pursuit of its nuclear and missile programs, as evidenced most recently by its February 7, 2016, launch using ballistic missile technology and its January 6, 2016, nuclear test in violation of its obligations pursuant to numerous UNSCRs and in contravention of its commitments under the September 19, 2005, Joint Statement of the Six-Party Talks, increasingly imperils the United States and its allies. To address those actions, and to take additional steps with respect to the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13466 of June 26, 2008, as modified in scope and relied upon for additional steps in subsequent Executive Orders, I hereby order:

Section 1. (a) All property and interests in property that are in the United States, that hereafter come within the United States, or that are or hereafter come within the possession or control of any United States person of the Government of North Korea or the Workers' Party of Korea are blocked and may not be transferred, paid, exported, withdrawn, or otherwise dealt in.

(ix) to have attempted to engage in any of the activities described in subsections (a)(i)-(viii) of this section.

(b) The prohibitions in subsection (a) of this section apply except to the extent provided by statutes, or in regulations, orders, directives, or licenses that may be issued pursuant to this order, and notwithstanding any contract entered into or any license or permit granted prior to the effective date of this order. The prohibitions in subsection (a) of this section are in addition to export control authorities implemented by the Department of Commerce.

Sec. 3. (a) The following are prohibited:

Sec. 4. I hereby find that the unrestricted immigrant and nonimmigrant entry into the United States of aliens determined to meet one or more of the criteria in subsection 2(a) of this order would be detrimental to the interests of the United States, and I hereby suspend entry into the United States, as immigrants or nonimmigrants, of such persons. Such persons shall be treated as persons covered by section 1 of Proclamation 8693 of July 24, 2011 (Suspension of Entry of Aliens Subject to United Nations Security Council Travel Bans and International Emergency Economic Powers Act Sanctions).

Sec. 5. I hereby determine that the making of donations of the type of articles specified in section 203(b)(2) of IEEPA (50 U.S.C. 1702(b)(2)) by, to, or for the benefit of any person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to section 1 or 2 of this order would seriously impair my ability to deal with the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13466, and I hereby prohibit such donations as provided by sections 1 and 2 of this order.

Sec. 6. The prohibitions in sections 1 and 2 of this order include but are not limited to:

(a) the making of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services by, to, or for the benefit of any person whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order; and

(b) the receipt of any contribution or provision of funds, goods, or services from any such person.

Sec. 7. (a) Any transaction that evades or avoids, has the purpose of evading or avoiding, causes a violation of, or attempts to violate any of the prohibitions set forth in this order is prohibited.

(b) Any conspiracy formed to violate any of the prohibitions set forth in this order is prohibited

Sec. 8. Nothing in this order shall prohibit transactions for the conduct of the official business of the Federal Government or the United Nations (including its specialized agencies, programmes, funds, and related organizations) by employees, grantees, or contractors thereof.

Sec. 9. For the purposes of this order

(a) the term "person" means an individual or entity;

(b) the term "entity" means a partnership, association, trust, joint venture, corporation, group, subgroup, or other organization;

(c) the term "United States person" means any United States citizen, permanent resident alien, entity organized under the laws of the United States or any jurisdiction within the United States (including foreign branches), or any person in the United States; and

(d) the term "Government of North Korea" means the Government of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and its agencies, instrumentalities, and controlled entities.

Sec. 10. For those persons whose property and interests in property are blocked pursuant to this order who might have a constitutional presence in the United States, I find that because of the ability to transfer funds or other assets instantaneously, prior notice to such persons of measures to be taken pursuant to this order would render those measures ineffectual. I therefore determine that for these measures to be effective in addressing the national emergency declared in Executive Order 13466, there need be no prior notice of a listing or determination made pursuant to section 1 or 2 of this order.

Sec. 11. The Secretary of the Treasury, in consultation with the Secretary of State, is hereby authorized to take such actions, including the promulgation of rules and regulations, and to employ all powers granted to the President by IEEPA and the UNPA as may be necessary to carry out the purposes of this order. The Secretary of the Treasury may redelegate any of these functions to other officers and agencies of the United States Government consistent with applicable law. All agencies of the United States Government are hereby directed to take all appropriate measures within their authority to carry out the provisions of this order.

Sec. 12. This order is not intended to, and does not, create any right or benefit, substantive or procedural, enforceable at law or in equity by any party against the United States, its departments, agencies, or entities, its officers, employees, or agents, or any other person.

Sec. 13. This order is effective at 12:01 a.m. eastern daylight time on March 16, 2016.

THE WHITE HOUSE,

March 15, 2016.

The Nuclear Security Summit (NSS) is a world summit, aimed at preventing nuclear terrorism around the globe. The first summit was held in Washington, D.C., United States, on April 12–13, 2010. The second summit was held in Seoul, South Korea, in 2012. The third summit was held in The Hague, Netherlands, on March 24–25, 2014. The fourth summit was held in Washington, D.C. on March 31-April 1, 2016.

The Fourth Nuclear Security Summit (NSS) made important progress toward the broader vision I outlined in Prague. First, we’re taking concrete steps toward a world without nuclear weapons. The United States and Russia remain on track to meet our New START Treaty obligations so that by 2018 the number of deployed American and Russian nuclear warheads will be at their lowest levels since the 1950s. Even as the United States maintains a safe, secure and effective nuclear arsenal to deter any adversary and ensure the security of our allies, I’ve reduced the number and role of nuclear weapons in our national security strategy. I also have ruled out developing new nuclear warheads and narrowed the contingencies under which the United States would ever use or threaten to use nuclear weapons. Second, we’re strengthening the global regime — including the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty — that prevents the spread of nuclear weapons. We’ve succeeded in uniting the international community against the spread of nuclear weapons, notably in Iran. A nuclear-armed Iran would have constituted an unacceptable threat to our national security and that of our allies and partners. It could have triggered a nuclear arms race in the Middle East and begun to unravel the global nonproliferation regime.

After Iran initially rejected a diplomatic solution, the United States mobilized the international community to impose sanctions on Iran, demonstrating that nations that fail to meet their nuclear obligations will face consequences. After intense negotiations, Iran agreed to a nuclear deal that closes every single one of its paths to a nuclear weapon, and Iran is now being subjected to the most comprehensive inspection regimen ever negotiated to monitor a nuclear program. In other words, under this deal, the world has prevented yet another nation from getting a nuclear bomb. And we’ll remain vigilant to ensure that Iran fulfills its commitments.

Third, we’re pursuing a new framework for civil nuclear cooperation so countries that meet their responsibilities can have access to peaceful nuclear energy. The international fuel bank that I called for seven years ago is now being built in Kazakhstan. With it, countries will be able to realize the energy they seek without enriching uranium, which could be at risk of diversion or theft.

    South Korea - U.S Biggest Millitary Drill Ever

    North Korea Launches Ballistic Missiles
    on March 18, 2016.

According to CNN, Fox and Yahoo, News dated March 18th, 2016: CNN)North Korea has launched two ballistic missiles off the west coast of the Korean peninsula, the South Korean military and U.S. defense officials said Friday. The South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff said that one ballistic missile flew a distance of 800 kilometers overland toward the sea off the country's east coast, while a second projectile, assumed to be a missile, was detected by radar but disappeared at an altitude of about 17 kilometers.

The military said it was closely tracking and monitoring the situation and maintaining a readiness posture for any North Korean provocation.

U.S. official confirmed the launch, with a U.S. defense official telling CNN that it tracked two ballistic missiles. The launch came around 5:55 a.m. local time, near Sukchon county, South Pyongan province, the Joint Chiefs of Staff said.

It comes one week after North Korea fired two missiles from North Hwanghae province, south of Pyongyang, toward the sea east of the Korean Peninsula. Japan's Prime Minister Shinzo Abe condemned North Korea's actions and called on the country "to exercise self-restraint." He said Japan would take "precautionary measures," including surveillance.

According to Pohang, South Korea (CNN) dated March 12, 2016 — The carefully choreographed drill begins a much larger, eight-week series of annual joint military exercises between the U.S. and South Korea. They take place against a backdrop of growing tension and missile tests just across the Demilitarized Zone in North Korea. South Korea's defense ministry spokesman is calling the maneuvers "the largest scale ever," involving 300,000 South Korean troops and at least 17,000 from the U.S. Small detachments of forces from Australia and New Zealand also participated in Saturday's operations.

According to nbc news, dated March 7th, 2016:

North Korea Threatens U.S. with nuclear strike over war games.

"North Korea issued another threat...warning of an indiscriminate 'pre-emptive nuclear strike of justice' on Washington and Seoul, this time in reaction to the start of huge U.S.-South Korean military drills."

According to the guardian.com, Russia warns north Korea over threats of nuclear strike:

"Russia has warned North Korea that threats to deliver 'preventive nuclear strikes' could create a legal basis for the use of military force against the country,...".

The following icons showing the biggest military drill ever which is not all the drill were included in this view although you can see how big this Military Drill was and serious !

    North Korea Doesn't Want give up Nuclear Weapon instead, Want to use whenever HE wants to USE

March 4th, 2016, Friday: According to Yahoo News, and WSJ Live News, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un said his country's nuclear weapons should be available for use at any time, according to state media. North Korea fired multiple ballistic missiles into the sea on March 4th, Thursday, 2016 after U.N. Tough Sanction Announced on March 2nd, 2016. Arirang News also preported that Kim Jong-un went a step further... issuing a stark order to the country′s military: be prepared to fire nukes ′at any time′.

Meanwhile, S.Korean president reiterates call for DPRK's nuclear renunciation

SEOUL, March 4 (Xinhua) -- South Korean President Park Geun-hye on Friday reiterated her call for the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK)'s nuclear renunciation, saying Pyongyang should return to a path to real change.

President Park said during a commission ceremony for military officers that unless the DPRK is made to stop its nuclear program, it will continue to advance its nuclear capability and bring an irreversible disaster to the future of the Korean peninsula.

The president urged Pyongyang to come to a path to real change by dropping a wrong delusion that its nuclear weapons guarantee its regime survival, saying the DPRK should be made to realize that its regime cannot survive unless the country abandons its nuclear program.

Her comments came after new tougher-than-ever sanctions resolution was adopted at the UN Security Council against the DPRK for its latest nuclear test and long-range rocket launch.

Hours after the adoption, the DPRK fired off six short-range projectiles into eastern waters in an apparent show of anger over the resolution, which South Korea described as the toughest and most effective non-military measures in seven decades of UN history.

    U.N Approved Toughest Sanctions
    on North Korea in 20 years

    U.N. Secretary of General
    Ban-ki Moon Welcomes

UN:2 March 2016 – The United Nations Security Council today unanimously adopted a resolution that imposes new sanctions and tightens some of its existing measures against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), due to the country's ongoing nuclear and ballistic missile-related activities that “threaten international peace and security.”

“Today's unanimous action by the Security Council has sent a clear message that the DPRK must return to full compliance with its international obligations,” said Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon in a statement issued by his spokesperson, in which the UN chief urged the East Asian country to abide by the resolution and called upon all UN Member States to ensure its implementation.

“This firm response by the Security Council should put an end to the cycle of provocation and lead to the resumption of dialogue in accordance with the unified view of the international community,” he added.

The Secretary-General also reiterated the critical role of international assistance in safeguarding the lives of millions in the country, while renewing his call on the DPRK to do more for the lives of its people. “Genuine improvement in human rights is a necessary basis for long-term security and stability,” he stressed.

In the resolution, which was sponsored by the United States, the 15-member body condemned “in the strongest terms” the nuclear test conducted by the DPRK on 6 January, noting that it was “in violation and flagrant disregard” of the Council's prior resolutions. It further condemned the country's launch of 7 February, which used ballistic missile technology and was a “serious violation.”

As a result of such incidents, the new measure expands sanctions against the DPRK by imposing a ban on all exports including coal, iron, iron ore, gold, titanium ore, vanadium ore and rare earth metals, and banning the supply of all types of aviation fuel, including rocket fuel.

The new resolution also requires States to inspect all cargo to and from the DPRK, not just those suspected of containing prohibited items, as was previously the case. It also bans leasing or chartering of vessels or airplanes and providing crew services to the country, and registering vessels, while calling on States to de-register any DPRK owned or controlled vessels. Additionally, it decides that States shall ban any flights and deny entry into their ports of any vessel suspected of carrying prohibited items.

Regarding financial sanctions, the resolution broadens their scope by imposing an asset freeze on all funds and other economic resources owned or controlled by the DPRK government or by the Worker's Party of Korea, if found to be associated with its nuclear or ballistic missile programme or any other prohibited activities.

An additional 13 individuals are designated in the resolution as subject to the travel ban and asset freeze, including several representatives of the Korea Mining Development Trading Corporation and the Tanchon Commercial Bank. It designates 12 new entities as subject to the asset freeze, including the Ministry of Atomic Energy and the Reconnaissance Energy Bureau, described as the DPRK's premiere intelligence organization.

The text also tightens existing financial restrictions by banning the opening and operation of any offices of DPRK banks abroad, as well as the opening of new offices of foreign financial institutions in the DPRK under all circumstances, unless approved by the Sanctions Committee in advance.

Turning to the arms embargo, which has been in effect since 2006, the resolution broadens its scope to include small arms and light weapons, which had previously been excluded. It includes a provision that imposes a ban on the transfer of any item, except food and medicine, if a State has reason to believe that it can contribute to the development and capabilities of the DPRK's armed forces.

Finally, the 19-page text underlines several times that measures imposed by it are not intended to have negative effects on the country's citizens. “Measures imposed […] and this resolution are not intended to have adverse humanitarian consequences for the civilian population of the DPRK or to affect negatively those activities, including economic activities and cooperation.”

    U.S., China Close Loophole in
    North Korea Sanctions

    missile tests with tougher sanctions. Photo: Associated Press

    Last Jan 6, 2016 North Korea’s state-owned broadcaster announced the testing of a hydrogen bomb on Wednesday morning. The broadcast from Pyongyang includes images of former North Korean leaders Kim Il Sung and Kim Jong Il, as well as newsreel footage of scientists working at a nuclear facility. Updates: regime says it has successfully detonated hydrogen bomb.

    In responded on these provokative action The United States has introduced a draft UN security council resolution which have significantly increased pressure on North Korea in response to the Asian nation’s latest nuclear test and missile launch.

    The US ambassador to the UN, Samantha Power, said the draft, which for the first time would subject cargo ships leaving and entering North Korea to mandatory inspections, goes further than previous sanctions and is meant to ensure North Korea will be held accountable for its actions.

    “It is a major upgrade and there will be, provided it goes forward, pressure on more points, tougher, more comprehensive, more sectors. It’s breaking new ground in a whole host of ways,” Power said, before heading into a closed-door meeting where the US planned to circulate the draft to all 15 council members.

    The draft is the result of an agreement between the US and China – North Korea’s main ally. Beijing’s involvement signals a policy shift with regard to its often erratic neighbour. The council is expected to vote on it over the weekend.

    Power said the sanctions would prohibit the sale of small arms and other conventional weapons to North Korea, closing a loophole in earlier resolutions.

    They would limit and in some cases ban exports of coal, iron, gold, and titanium and rare earth minerals from North Korea and would prohibit countries from supplying aviation fuel, including rocket fuel, to the country.

    The resolution imposes financial sanctions targeting North Korean banks and assets and bans all dual-use nuclear and missile-related items.

    North Korea nuclear H-bomb test claims provoke skepticism and condemnation – as it happened which it occurred Artificial earthquake was detected near known nuclear testing site in North Korea on Wednesday, An announcement on North Korean television said the country had successfully tested a “miniaturized hydrogen bomb” underground on Wednesday morning, January 6th, 2016, describing it as an “act of self-defense” against the US. North Korean claims about the size and type of bomb have not been independently verified.

    North Korea has conducted its fourth nuclear test, the country’s state media has announced, in a move that could take it a step closer to developing nuclear warheads capable of striking the US mainland.

    Some experts, though, said initial evidence was pointing towards a test involving a uranium or plutonium device and not, as Pyongyang has claimed, a far more powerful hydrogen bomb.

    Congress Receives DoD Report on North Korea

According to DOD, Terri Moon CronkDoD News, Defense Media Activity WASHINGTON, February 12, 2016 — The Defense Department sent Congress its 2015 report on North Korea’s military power today, Pentagon spokesman Navy Capt. Jeff Davis told reporters.

The report, “Military and Security Developments Involving the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea,” was originally mandated in 2012 to inform Congress and the public of DoD’s analytical assessment of North Korea’s activities based on continuous U.S. monitoring, according to DoD officials. The latest report does not contain North Korea’s underground nuclear bomb detonation on Jan. 6, or missile launch on Feb. 7, but Davis confirmed the detonation.

Addressing the Feb. 7 launch, Davis told reporters that North Korea’s use of “ballistic-missile technology, following so closely on the heels of its January nuclear test, is another destabilizing and provocative action and flagrant violation of multiple U.N. security council resolutions.”

“North Korea has veiled [the Feb. 7 launch] as a peaceful space launch, but we all recognize that this very technology is used to construct the [intercontinental-ballistic missiles] they aspire to possess and [use] to hold our homeland at risk,” Davis said.

North Korea’s missile and nuclear weapons program further “undermines peace and security in the broader region [and] represents serious threats to our interests, including the security of some of our closest allies,” he noted.

“They continue to prioritize missile and nuclear weapons programs over the well-being of their own people,” the spokesman said, “and we remain fully committed to our allies in the region and will take all necessary steps to defend ourselves and our allies and respond to North Korean provocations.” The North Koreans’ December 2012 missile launch bears some resemblance to the launch on Feb. 7, he said.

“The December 2012 [Taepodong-2 missile] launch was fired on a southern trajectory,” Davis said, adding that the Feb. 7 launch also was a Taepodong-2 intercontinental-ballistic missile fired on a southern trajectory.

“A lot has been made of the satellite they have put into orbit and whether it’s in a stable orbit or tumbling,” he noted. “What matters is they have now done, on two different occasions, this demonstration of a three-stage rocket capability, which is capable of reaching space. That is the same technology that can be used to put a nuclear warhead on and to hold distant countries at risk.”

    Statement by National Security Advisor Susan E. Rice on the North Korean Missile Launch

North Korea's launch using ballistic missile technology, following so closely after its January 6 nuclear test, represents yet another destabilizing and provocative action and is a flagrant violation of multiple United Nations Security Council resolutions. North Korea’s missile and nuclear weapons programs represent serious threats to our interests--including the security of some of our closest allies--and undermine peace and security in the broader region.

We condemn today's launch and North Korea's determination to prioritize its missile and nuclear weapons programs over the well-being of its people, whose struggles only intensify with North Korea’s diversion of scarce resources to such destabilizing activities.

The United States is fully committed to the security of our allies in the region, and we will take all necessary steps to defend ourselves and our allies and respond to North Korean provocations. We call upon the international community to stand together and demonstrate to North Korea that its reckless actions must have serious consequences.

According to Wikipedia North Korea conducted its fourth nuclear detonation on 6 January 2016 at 10:00:01 UTC+08:30. At the Punggye-ri Nuclear Test Site, approximately 50 kilometres (30 miles) northwest of Kilju City in Kilju County, an underground nuclear test was carried out. The United States Geological Service reported a 5.1 magnitude earthquake from the location; the China Earthquake Networks Center reported the magnitude as 4.9.

North Korean media made announcements that the regime had successfully tested a hydrogen bomb. However third-party experts—as well as officials and agencies in South Korea—doubted North Korea's claims and contend that the device was more likely to have been a fission bomb such as a boosted fission weapon. Such weapons use hydrogen fusion to produce smaller, lighter warheads suitable for arming a delivery device such as a missile, rather than to attain the destructive power of a true hydrogen bomb.

Kwangmyongsong-4 (Korean for Bright Star-4 or Lodestar-4) or KMS-4 is an earth observation satellite launched by North Korea on 7 February 2016.

The launch happened after North Korea conducted a nuclear test on 6 January and as the United Nations Security Council is deciding on sanctions to be placed on the country following the nuclear test. The launch was also timed to celebrate the 74th birthday of the late leader Kim Jong-il on February 16. Although there is U.S. Ballistic Missile Defense System Intercept Against Multiple which possible to protect danger situation Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD), formerly Theater High Altitude Area Defense, is a United States Army anti-ballistic missile system designed to shoot down short, medium, and intermediate ballistic missiles in their terminal phase using a hit-to-kill approach. The missile carries no warhead but relies on the kinetic energy of the impact to destroy the incoming missile. A kinetic energy hit minimizes the risk of exploding conventional warhead ballistic missiles, and nuclear tipped ballistic missiles won't explode upon a kinetic energy hit, although chemical or biological warheads may disintegrate or explode and pose a risk of contaminating the environment. THAAD was designed to hit Scuds and similar weapons.

The THAAD system is being designed, built, and integrated by Lockheed Martin Space Systems acting as prime contractor. Key subcontractors include Raytheon, Boeing, Aerojet, Rocketdyne, Honeywell, BAE Systems, Oshkosh Defense, MiltonCAT, and the Oliver Capital Consortium. One THAAD system costs US$800 million. Although originally a U.S. Army program, THAAD has come under the umbrella of the Missile Defense Agency. The Navy has a similar program, the sea-based Aegis Ballistic Missile Defense System, which now has a land component as well ("Aegis ashore"). THAAD was originally scheduled for deployment in 2012, but initial deployment took place May 2008.

On 29 June 2010, resulted successful: FTT-14: Conducted a successful endo-atmospheric intercept of unitary target at lowest altitude to date. Afterward, exercised Simulation-Over-Live-Driver (SOLD) system to inject multiple simulated targets into the THAAD radar to test system's ability to engage a mass raid of enemy ballistic missiles.

5 October 2011 resulted successful: FTT-12: Conducted a successful endo-atmospheric intercept of two targets with two interceptors.

24 October 2012 resulted successful: FTI-01 (Flight Test Integrated 01): test of the integration of THAAD with PAC-3 and Aegis against a raid of 5 missiles of different types.

    North, South Korea agree to
    defuse crisis after marathon talks:

    N. Korea issues threat after DMZ Artillery exchange fire across border

    The shelling occurred ten days after South Korea resumed the loudspeaker broadcasting following the North's deadly landmine attack

Seoul (AFP) - North and South Korea reached agreement Tuesday, following marathon talks, on ending a tense military stand-off that had pushed the two rivals to the brink of armed conflict.

In a joint accord, the North "expressed regret" over recent mine blasts that maimed two South Korean soldiers, while the South agreed to switch off loudspeakers blasting propaganda messages across the border.

The speakers will be silenced at midday (0300 GMT) Tuesday, at which time the North will lift a "semi-war state" declared last week by leader Kim Jong-Un.

The two also agreed to work towards a resumption next month of reunions for families separated by the 1950-53 Korean War, and to hold official talks in either Seoul or Pyongyang at a date to be decided.

The agreement, which appeared to cover the major areas of contention, came after days and nights of gruelling negotiations which began early Saturday evening in the border truce village of Panmunjom.

The talks had played out against a dangerous military stand-off, which included a rare artillery exchange over the border last week, and saw both sides ramping up the military rhetoric and flexing their weaponry.

Tensions continued to rise while the discussions were on, with South Korean and US jets flying simulated bombing runs, and North Korea reportedly deploying two thirds of its 70-vessel submarine fleet.

- 'New momentum' -

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon "warmly welcomed" the accord which was also published in full by the North's official KCNA news agency.

South Korea's lead negotiator, National Security Adviser Kim Kwan-Jin, said the agreement would settle the current crisis and provide a "new momentum" for inter-Korean relations in the future.

Kim described North Korea's expression of regret for the mine blasts as "very meaningful" and said securing it had taken up most of the time in his negotiations with his North Korean counterpart Hwang Pyong-So -- a close confidant of leader Kim Jong-Un.

"We had to get a word of apology that has the North as the main agent," Kim said.

Pyongyang has repeatedly denied any responsibility for the mine blasts, and Tuesday's accord avoided any explicit acceptance of responsibility.

But analysts said it came far closer than they had expected.

- A 'clear' apology -

"Past inter-Korea agreements at a time like this have tended to be extremely ambiguous," said Jeung Young-Tae, an analyst at the Korea Institute for National Unification in Seoul.

"But in the world of diplomatic language, this is a clear apology, with the object of the regret -- the landmine blasts that maimed the soldiers -- clearly stated," Jeung said.

Kim Kwan-Jin also noted that the South's commitment to ending the broadcasts was conditional on the absence of any "abnormal" events -- an apparent reference to future North Korean provocations.

"We had to insist on that because otherwise another provocation may take place, posing a threat to public safety and national security," Kim said

The agreement will be welcomed by neighbouring countries like China and Japan, which had viewed the stand-off on the Korean peninsula with growing concern and urged both sides to show calm and restraint.

It will also be viewed with some relief by the United States, which has nearly 30,000 US troops permanently stationed in South Korea and had repeatedly reiterated its commitment to the defence of its key Asian ally.

"As with all such agreements, the devil is in the details," said Yang Moo-Jin, a professor at the University of North Korean Studies in Seoul.

"But it clearly represents a turnaround for the current crisis and shifts the pendulum towards dialogue," Yang said.

Technically, the two Koreas have been at war for the past 65 years since the 1950-53 Korean War ended with a ceasefire that was never ratified by a formal peace treaty.
