The Pentagon confirmed the existence of the DPRK Intercontinental ballistic missiles. In the US defence Department announced that the range was tested on Monday, the rockets may exceed five and a half thousand kilometers. This will allow Pyongyang to strike at least Alaska, and possibly on the West coast of the United States. Thus, North Korea takes on the status of global nuclear power. What it may lead?

Statement of Kim Jong-UN, which leads the North Korean state Agency, is: “you Bastards in America are not very pleased with this gift on the 4th of July”. The leader of the DPRK clearly enjoys his newfound status and boasts of the ability to launch a nuclear strike on any point of the planet. The first launch of Intercontinental ballistic missiles, condemned by all global and regional players. Vladimir Putin and XI Jinping jointly called on the parties to negotiations and suspend its nuclear program in exchange for end to U.S. drills. Dialogue previously played Seoul and Tokyo. Washington, as if nothing had happened, then held exercises to “eliminate the top leadership of the DPRK in case of crisis.”

Mikhail Khodarenok, a military observer “Newspaper.Ru”, Colonel “it’s not in the DPRK leadership, it’s possible to put one type of prompt global strike, which involves due application of the funds only with conventional warheads — the elimination of the nuclear missile potential of the probable enemy. This concept they have developed, and it is possible that North Korea will become the first country where they will test it in action. Here the main task is not to neutralize the North Korean leadership, the main task when conducting a prompt global strike against North Korea is that there has not been any active detonation of a nuclear weapon by North Korea.”

USA was held hostage by his own “red lines”. Early in the year, trump stated categorically that the test North Korean missiles capable of reaching the United States, “will not happen”. Now the ball is on the side of trump — all regional powers insist on dialogue, the Pentagon flexes its muscles and plays the operation to remove the Kim — it is believed that the Palace RENSON most afraid of assassins. In some sense, as the risks of the American-Korean conflict affect Russia only indirectly, Moscow, now you can simply sit back and observe what is happening, says chief researcher of the Institute of USA and Canada studies, Vladimir Vassilyev.

Vladimir Vasiliev, chief researcher of the Institute of USA and Canada studies “Today, here is the problem of North Korea really comes to the fore of American politics. Ukraine, from my point of view, all was gone from the radar of American foreign policy. Provoking conflict with Syria, in Syria, with Russia on the background of dramatically aggravating the situation in the far East is just pointless and even to a certain extent as would be suicidal to provoke a war on two fronts. So, from my point of view, we can expect some easing of confrontation between the US and Russia in Ukraine and the middle East.”

Escalation brings Moscow and costs — this year in South Korea was placed American missile defense system, which Russia is extremely sensitive about its borders. The current crisis on the Korean Peninsula will undoubtedly be raised at the meeting, Donald trump, Vladimir Putin. Perhaps the Russian President will be able to act as a peacemaker and to persuade the United States to hold direct dialogue with the DPRK.
