N. Korea sees no reason to negotiate with "gangster-like" US

In this article, it is explained that North Korea sees us as a threat and is ready for any kind of war with Americans, even involving cyber attacks or nuclear weapons. North Korean National Defense Commission saw it as US trying to bring down the North Korean government and start a war of aggression, they are "ready to fight with “miniaturized, precision and diversified nuclear-striking means,” as well as “cyber warfare means,” to “write the last page” of American history. This was really interesting to me to read about their points of view on everything on how they see the U.S. by referring to us as “gangster-like”. The U.S. and South Korea agreed to talk with North Korea once they genuinely end it’s nuclear weapons program. On the other hand, North Korea agreed only if they cancel their annual joint military exercises. It’s been a constant back and forth with North Korea, especially when it comes to hacking into our systems and theirs. With the threat of their miniaturized nuclear striking, and stating it as “writing the last page” of American history is a huge issue that has started just over cyber threats. This shows how much technology has influenced today and how we communicate and expose other places, when before and throughout history that wasn’t even a factor.
