North Korea is 'TERRIFIED': Kim Jong-un lives in fear of Donald Trump attack
NORTH KOREA leader Kim Jong-un is living in fear of a Donald Trump military attack and won’t give up his nuclear weapons until he isn’t, according to an expert on the hermit state.
North Korea sparked fears of World War 3 after ignoring international condemnation and sanctions to continue building an arsenal of deadly nuclear weapons.
And now it looks unlikely North Korea will ever stop in its quest to become a nuclear super state as the rogue nation is worried of a repeat of the Korean War which killed “20 per cent” of its citizens.
Author and North Korea expert Nicholas Davies told RT Kim Jong-un is “terrified” of an invasion and will maintain his nuclear programme until he isn’t.
Mr Davies said: “We have to stop threatening them if we want to have successful diplomacy, better relations and hopefully eventually a permanent peace agreement, finally formally ending the Korean War.

“The Korean War killed at least 20 per cent of North Korea population, that is why they are terrified.”
US Secretary of State Rex Tillerson has said he will willing to open dialogue with North Korea to find a resolution to the tension.
Secretary Tillerson even said he would speak about the weather with Kim Jong-un’s people if it meant they were at the negotiating table.
Retired US Army General Jack Keane shared Mr Davies’ beliefs that North Korea will only agree to disarm when they truly believe US President Donald Trump will not use military power against them.
General Keane told Fox: “The Russians have told us North Korea is willing to have some serious negotiations – whether that is true or not, I don’t know.
“Secretary of State Tillerson spoke about negotiations. The North Koreans have always used negotiations as a plot to advance their programme covertly, while we’re conducting negotiations.
“Our administration here is very much aware of that. But, I do think there might be a slight opening here to begin a diplomatic effort to succeed.
“The bellicose language will likely continue, regardless.”
General Keane then revealed North Korea leader Kim Jong-un is only trying to “guarantee the security of his regime”.
He added: “The Kim dynasty to go on, that’s clearly what he wants.
“That’s why he wants to point weapons at the American people, much like Russia and China does.
“If there’s a way that we can convince him… truly convince him we will never attack North Korea, then I think this thing starts to move in the right direction.”
