U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday he was not upset by North Korea’s launching of short-range ballistic missiles earlier this week, ONA reports quoting Reuters.

North Korea said Thursday’s missile launch was a warning to South Korean “warmongers” to stop importing weapons and conducting joint military drills, a message that analysts said was also aimed at the United States.

“We’ll see what happens, but they are short-range missiles and many people have those missiles ... very standard missiles,” Trump told reporters at the White House, reiterating that he has a very good relationship with North Korea leader Kim Jong Un.
