HE’S been terrifying his neighbours with missile tests.
But that hasn’t stopped North Korean leader Kim Jong-un throwing some serious shade at US President Donald Trump who he says poses a great danger to the world.
Kim has taken an apparent exception to Mr Trump’s decision to pull out of the Paris climate agreement, which has been signed by 194 countries.
The North Korean dictator is so furious at the US President he called him selfish and labelled his acts “the height of egotism”.
The US joins Nicaragua and Syria as the only countries not to be part of the deal signed in 2016.
A foreign ministry spokesman told the state-run KCNA news agency Mr Trump’s action was ignorant.
“This is the height of egoism and moral vacuum seeking only their own wellbeing even at the cost of the entire planet and, at the same time, a shortsighted and silly decision ignorant of the fact that the protection of the global environment is in their own interests,” the spokesman said.
“The selfish act of the US does not only have grave consequences for the international efforts to protect the environment, but poses great danger to other areas as well.”
North Korea isn’t very happy with US President Donald Trump.

North Korea called climate change “one of the gravest challenges the humankind is facing today” and has taken steps to comply with the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, the New York Daily News .. http://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/north-korea-slams-selfish-u-s-trump-paris-accord-exit-article-1.3228695?utm_content=buffer960dd&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter.com&utm_campaign=NYDailyNewsTw .. reported.
Kim’s stinging rebuke of the US comes as the secretive nation launched a number of projectiles off its east coast today.
The South Korean military said today the North had launched the “surface-to-ship” missiles which were test-fired near the eastern port city of Wonsan in the Kangwon Peninsula.
The missiles flew around 200km, with an apogee of around 2km.
It was the fourth missile test by the nuclear-armed regime in less than five weeks, as Pyongyang continues to defy UN warnings and US threats of possible military action.
