WASHINGTON - Shots fired by North Korea across its border with South Korea were likely “accidental,” U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said on Sunday as speculation continues to swirl about the health of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. North and South Korea on Saturday exchanged gunfire around a rural guard post, raising tension a day after North Korean state media showed Kim visiting a factory, the first report of him making a public appearance since April 11.“We think those are accidental. South Koreans did return fire. So far as we can tell, there was no loss of life on either side,” Pompeo said on ABC This Week.
Pompeo declined to discuss whether he knows whether Kim has been gravely ill over the last few weeks - which ratcheted up speculation as Kim missed a celebration of his late grandfather - but said based on video footage of him from state television at a recent event, “It looks like Chairman Kim is alive and well.”
“We know there have been other extended periods of timewhere Chairman Kim’s been out of public view as well, so it’s not unprecedented,” Pompeo said.
Pompeo. There's another administration member whom I trust about as far as I could throw him.
It's within his responsibility to kiss Trump's ass. Kissing Kim Jong Un's ass, however, is not.
The world missed you - shots fired. No we really did!
Strange the lengths they go to protect and talk up NK and its dictator 😒
Excuse me ignorance. Who is this guy?
As a matter of fact, North Korea is only shooting North Korean defectors floating balloons, stray bullets landed in the South Korean defense zone.
Of course!🙄
Excusing North Korea, this is the trump America.
Sure
Mr Know it all is at it again.
Kim (N. Korea Dictator) is displaying notions that call us out of the confines to stand fast against and marginalize at costs which, should be mind you, limited. War knows no victors only degrees of loss. It is never the ideal answer. Still, MacArthur was on the ball at the time.
Ok.Sure.
Uh huh... like Trumps lies and dicktator tendencies are 'accidental'
¿How much for the true?
Yeh right
bull$hit
Just shut up Mike. Nobody believes your crap anymore. :-)
