‘Dangerous Consequences Ahead….’ North Korea’s WW3 Warning To U.S-South Korea Military Drills [Video]

‘Dangerous Consequences Ahead….’ North Korea’s WW3 Warning To U.S-South Korea Military Drills

North Korea has issued a stark warning to the United States and South Korea over their upcoming Ulchi Freedom Shield military drills, calling them a “direct provocation” and a serious threat to stability on the Korean Peninsula. Defense Minister No Kwang Choi, in a statement via state-run KCNA, condemned the large-scale exercise — set for August 18–28 — which will involve live field maneuvers, computer simulations, and civil defense training. He warned of “negative consequences” and vowed that Pyongyang would exercise its “sovereign right” to self-defense if provoked. While the Combined Forces Command insists the drills are defensive in nature, half of the planned field exercises have been postponed due to extreme weather and to avoid escalating tensions. This comes as both Koreas recently removed propaganda loudspeakers along the DMZ, hinting at fragile attempts to improve relations despite the looming military standoff. #NorthKorea #USSouthKoreaDrills #UlchiFreedomShield #PyongyangWarning #KoreanPeninsula #MilitaryTensions #KCNA #SouthKorea #USMilitary #Defense #WarGames #KoreanConflict #Geopolitics #DPRK #MilitaryExercise #USNews #SouthKoreaNews #WorldNews #PeaceTalks #MilitaryDrills ~HT.410~GR.124~

Trump SLAPS 25% TARIFFS on Japan & South Korea | Key Trading Partners on Trump’s TARIFF Radar

Donald Trump has slapped 25% tariffs on Japan and South Korea, warning both nations to “build in the USA or pay up.” With a July 9 deadline looming, Trump’s letters threaten even steeper tariffs if Tokyo or Seoul retaliate or refuse trade deals. He blames long-standing U.S. trade deficits on “unfair policies.” Investors reacted sharply—Nissan shares tumbled over 7%. As tariff tensions rise, Trump promises fast-track approvals for companies shifting production to the U.S., intensifying global trade war fears. #TrumpTariffs #TradeWar #USJapanRelations #USKoreaRelations #25PercentTariffs #TariffDeadline #BuildInUSA #TrumpTradePolicy #JapanSouthKorea #NissanCrash #GlobalTradeTensions #WhiteHouseTariffs #TariffThreat #ManufacturingShift #USAutoTariffs #EconomicPressure #TrumpVsAsia #TradeDeficit #TrumpDeals #AmericaFirst #TrumpLetters #TariffShock #SouthKoreaTrade #JapanTradeCrisis #Protectionism #ReciprocalTariffs #TariffNews Also Read US President Donald Trump Announces 25% Tariffs On Japan, South Korea :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-announces-25-tariffs-on-japan-south-korea-7794333.html?ref=DMDesc Trump Calls Musk’s America Party Plan ‘Ridiculous’ And ‘Unworkable’ :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-calls-musk-s-america-party-plan-ridiculous-and-unworkable-7793443.html?ref=DMDesc America Will Be Richer, Safer, and Prouder: Trump As Big, Beautiful Bill Passes Congress :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/trump-s-big-beautiful-bill-passes-congress-in-big-win-for-us-president-011-7790919.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.318~ED.103~GR.122~
