Korean political commentator JS Suh said North Koreas recent launch of missile over Japan seems to indicate the rogue country has real intention to fire missiles into the American territory of Guam.


Experts believe that North Koreas latest missile test over the Japanese mainland seems to be a preparation for a strike on the US Pacific territory of Guam.

Earlier this month, North Korea threatened to fire four missiles into the sea near Guam, home to a major US military presence.

Korean political commentator JS Suh said the goal of North Korea seems to be obvious that is getting ready for nuclear missile which can reach to US territory and Kim has proven that with his recent missile launch.

 

Mr Suh also analyses the the Seoul High Courts ruling giving a four-year jail term to a former spy agency chief Won, Se Hoon for his role in a covert operation to manipulate public sentiment in the run-up to the 2012 presidential election.
