Seoul
NORTH Korea hit back at US President Donald Trump on Sunday after he slammed rights abuses under the hermit regime in his State of the Union address, with Pyongyang describing the speech as "screams of Trump terrified" by the North's power.
The comments follow months of rhetoric between the two nations that have seen tensions soar, with Mr Trump drawing criticism at home for repeatedly using menacing language towards the reclusive state. During Wednesday's address, he criticised the "cruel dictatorship" of Kim Jong-Un and his "reckless pursuit" of atomic weapons while vowing to wage "a campaign of maximum pressure" to derail the nuclear threat.
