An editorial in the North Korean state-run media has just expressed a preference in the American presidential race.
And the Stalinist state’s winner is… Donald Trump!
According to the editorial in DPRK Today, Donald Trump is a “wise politician” and “far-sighted.
Hillary Clinton, on the other hand, is “dull,” and thus not a favorite of the most oppressive dictatorship in the world.
North Korea expert Aidan Foster-Carter of the University of Leeds told NK News that “This is very striking.”
Foster-Carter continued, “admittedly it is not exactly Pyongyang speaking, or at least not the DPRK government in an official capacity. But it is certainly Pyongyang flying a kite, or testing the waters. For the rest of us, this is a timely reminder – if it were needed – of just how completely Trump plans to tear up established U.S. policy in the region; and what an irresponsible, unthinking menace the man is.”
The North Korean preference for Trump comes on the heels of Trump offering olive branches to both North Korea and Vladimir Putin, while publicly chastising traditional US ally Great Britain.
