N Korea tests multiple rocket launchers; Trump expects N Korea’s Kim not to break promise
North Korea has tested long-range multiple rocket launchers and tactical guided weapons in a “strike drill” overseen by leader Kim Jong Un.

The Korean Central News Agency said the drill took place on Saturday, when North Korea also fired projectiles into the sea in what could be Pyongyang’s first short-range missile launch for more than a year as it seeks to up pressure on Washington with nuclear talks deadlocked.

US President Donald Trump voiced confidence Saturday that North Korea’s Kim Jong Un would not “break his promise,” after South Korea said Pyongyang had launched several unidentified projectiles into the sea.

Trump tweeted that “Anything in this very interesting world is possible, but I believe that Kim Jong Un fully realises the great economic potential of North Korea, & will do nothing to interfere or end it. He also knows that I am with him & does not want to break his promise to me. Deal will happen!” added the US president, in response to what could be Pyongyang’s first short-range missile launch for more than a year.
