North Korea released a chilling propaganda video Tuesday showing President Donald Trump standing in a graveyard and Vice President Mike Pence in flames as the United States and South Korea prepare for joint military maneuvers.
According to the Daily Mail, a statement by the state-run Korean Central News Agency branded the United States as "imperialists" and South Korea as "war maniacs."
The KCNA also attacked Trump, describing him as a leader who frequently tweets "weird articles of his ego-driven thoughts" and "spouts rubbish" to give his assistants a hard time, the Daily Mail reported. In the video, North Korean troops are seen marching in a parade, and then a cemetery filled with white wooden crosses – believed to be on Guam – with a still image of Trump staring at the graves superimposed onto the scene, the New York Post reported.
The video also features Pence in flames – and attacks South Korea's "puppy-like" Defense Minister Song Young-moo for "pinning hope on that mad guy," a reference to Trump, Fox News reported.
The 10-day Ulchi Freedom Guardian drills – which themselves are a response to the North's nuclear tests – are largely computer-simulated.
But the KCNA said it would be ready to stage "ruthless" retaliation against South Korea and the United States.
"The U.S. will be wholly held accountable for the catastrophic consequences to be entailed by such reckless aggressive war maneuvers, as it chose a military confrontation [with North Korea]," a North Korean military spokesman said to the KCNA, the Post reported.
