Kim Jong Un reportedly launches missiles at random when US provokes him
(FOX)- North Korean ruler Kim Jong Un randomly fires off missiles whenever he gets upset about the United States’ demands, his father’s former sushi chef revealed Wednesday, as the country appeared to be gearing up for its next launch.
Kenji Fujimoto, now living in Japan, told the Japanese newspaper Mainichi Shimbun that Kim Jong Un made the admission during a recent trip to Pyongyang.
“I have no intention of waging war,” Kim said, according to Fujimoto. “It’s that whenever a diplomat tries to approach the U.S., they come up with unreasonable demands. They aggravate me, so I launch missiles.”
The former chef suggested that Kim was irritated by U.S. sanctions and military threats from rivals, UPI reported, citing South Korean news service News 1.
Fujimoto has worked with the Kim family since the 1980s and left North Korea in 2001. Since then, he reportedly has advised Kim on North Korea-Japan relations.
