North Korea: Kim Jong-un calls Trump ‘deranged’ and warns he will ‘pay dearly’ for his threats

‘Donald Trump is “deranged”, according to North Korean leader Kim Jong-un who warned the US President would “pay dearly” for his threats against his country.
Describing the US leader as “a rogue and a gangster fond of playing with fire”, Mr Kim said his counterpart was “unfit to hold the prerogative of supreme command of a country.”
The statement carried by North’s official Korean Central News Agency, comes after the US President gave a bellicose speech at the UN General Assembly in which he threatened to “totally destroy” North Korea if it did not step aside from its nuclear weapons programme.
“Rocket man is on a suicide mission for himself and his regime,” Mr Trump said. He said of the US: “If it is forced to defend itself or its allies, we will have no choice but to totally destroy North Korea.”’
