Replying strongly to Donald Trump‘s statement at the UN General Assembly, the North Korean foreign minister has stated that the country is not afraid of the Dog’s Bark and is ready to take on any challenges that come its way.

FYI, Donald Trump, in his speech at the UN General Assembly yesterday, had said that if North Korea attacks the US or any of its allies, it would destroy the entire country within minutes.

The statements by both these leaders came amid the growing tension between North Korea and rest of the world. Despite the sanctions by the US and the UN, North Korea has been expanding its nuclear capacity in regular intervals. Off late, it has also fired a couple of missiles towards Japan, that further increased the tensions in the peninsula region.

Ri Yong-Ho, the Korean foreign minister was in New York to attend the UN meetings. As he faced the reporters, a lot of them asked his reaction to the speech of Donald Trump earlier in the day and he responded in a similar tone.

“There is a saying that marching goes on even when dogs bark and if they are trying to shock us with the sound of a dog’s bark they are clearly having a dog dream.” North Korean Foreign Minister told reporters outside a hotel in New York.

According to the North Korean leaders, the country is extensively expanding its nuclear program to be able to safeguard itself against any of the potential risks from US and other countries.
