Hillary Clinton Slams Trump’s ‘Dangerous’ War of Words with N. Korea

SHAFAQNA-

Former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton slammed President Donald Trump’s “dangerous and short-sighted” war of words with North Korea Wednesday, saying his Twitter tirades only benefitted Pyongyang’s “attention-seeking ruler” and hurt Washington’s credibility.

“I am worried about some of the recent actions from the new administration that seem to raise tensions. Our allies are now expressing concerns about America’s credibility and reliability,” Clinton said.

“Picking up fights with Kim Jong-Un just puts a smile on his face. It’s like picking fights with NATO and the EU which puts a smile on Putin’s face,” she added, referring to the Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Clinton lost last year’s presidential election to the insurgent Republican despite having decades of experience in politics.

Trump’s escalating verbal threats have sparked concerns of potential conflict on the Korean peninsula, especially after he warned this month that “only one thing will work” on the North, without elaborating further.

Such “cavalierly threats to start a war are dangerous and short-sighted”, Clinton said, adding the regime would be “thrilled” to get the “personal attention of the leader of our country”.

Without once mentioning Trump by name, she also said she was “very concerned that the new administration is draining the government of the expertise” in diplomacy over the North.
