North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un has been testing 'new weapons' tests, ignoring the US threat to nuclear disarmament. North Korea's president is believed to have tested new short-range ballistic missiles. The range of these missiles is 400 km. May be.

On the other side, taking lightly North Korea's series of missile tests, US President Donald Trump claimed that Kim Jong-un was eager to resume talks with the United States. Trump said Kim Jong-un has expressed an eagerness for the visit after the US-South Korea military exercises were over and apologized for the recent series of missile tests.

North Korea on Saturday conducted a fifth test in two weeks as part of its opposition to the US and South Korea's annual joint military exercise. Seoul's defense officials said Pyongyang was supposed to test two short-range ballistic missiles on Saturday, with a capacity of 400 km.

KCNA did not provide any technical information on the tests, but said on Sunday that they had developed 'new weapons' that were tested according to the country's terrain conditions. The official Rodong Sinmun newspaper published some photos of Kim Jong with his colleagues testing.

Kim Dong-ube, a researcher at the Institute of Far Eastern Studies, said that these "new weapons" could be short-range ballistic missiles as part of a North Korean military modernization. This new weapon could be a low-cost North Korean version and a high-impact retaliation system.

Meanwhile, despite a historic meeting with Kim Jong-un in Singapore in June 2018, Trump appears to be determined to reconcile nuclear disarmament with North Korea ahead of next year's presidential election. Trump claimed that Kim Jong Un is eager to resume negotiations with America.
