Trump: ‘No I’m Not’ Bothered by North Korea’s Latest Missile Tests

‘I’m in no rush at all’

EXCERPT:

TRUMP: "Well, first of all, let me say that I think that Kim Jong un or Chairman Kim as some people say, is looking to create a nation that has great strength economically. I think he is very much -- I talked to him a lot about it, and he's very much into the fact that he believes, like i do, that North Korea has tremendous economic potential, like perhaps few other developing nations anywhere in the world. And I think that he is looking to develop that way. He knows that with nuclear, that's never going to happen. Only bad can happen, he understands that. He is a very smart man, he gets it well. So, I think that he is -- he is going to try at some point, I am no rush at all, the sanctions remain, we have our hostages back. We, as you know, are getting the remains, continuing to get the remains. A lot of good things are happening. And very importantly, there has been no nuclear testing for two years. I looked at the chart the other day, during the past administration there were many numbers that were very high like 10, 12, 18, having to do with missile launches and nuclear testing. And for the last two years, on the bottom it had zero and zero. So I am very happy with the way it's going. And intelligent people agree with me."
REPORTER: "You're not bothered at all by the small missiles?
TRUMP: "No, I am not. I am personally not."
