US Senator John McCain did not like the words of President Donald Trump of the US readiness to deal a crushing blow to the DPRK. The owner of the White House is not strong enough for this, I'm sure McCain. Political analysts note that the American "hawks" are fed up with the warlike statements of the president, for which nothing is worth.

"North Korea is better not to threaten the US anymore - they will meet with fire and fury, which the world has not seen before," - said Donald Trump. These words caused a real sensation in the American political establishment, reports RT.

Influential Senator John McCain said in a radio broadcast about his disagreement with the president's comment, "since if you say that you are going to do something, then you must be sure that you can do it".

The member of the upper house of Congress said that he had long since given up trying to interpret the presidential statements. "I do not know what he is saying, I have long stopped trying to interpret what he says. It's not something terrible, but it's the classic Trump, in the sense that he's exaggerating everything, "McCain said..

The senator also reproached the US President for his incautious words that he could incur the wrath of Kim Jong-un on American allies from South Korea. Like, the North Koreans have a thousand missiles aimed at Seoul, and they can burn out the whole city in two counts. Instead of formidable ultimatums against the DPRK, McCain advised Trump to negotiate with China and improve the missile defense system.

Presidential statements were also criticized by Sen. Democrat from California Dianne Fainstein. "North Korea's isolation did not stop their desire to acquire nuclear weapons. President Trump with his pretentious comments also does not help resolve the situation. There is no doubt that North Korea seeks to obtain a nuclear warhead for ICBMs capable of reaching the United States, "the politician noted..

According to her, the American leadership is obliged in the near future to begin a dialogue with North Korea at the highest level without preconditions, since "diplomacy is the only reasonable way".

The fact that Trump's words only provoked the North Koreans is evidenced by the official statement of the DPRK's strategic forces. The military said they are studying the possibility of striking medium-range ballistic missiles at American bases on the island of Guam. In a separate statement, the North Korean military stressed its readiness to move to a "total war" if Washington began "a preventive war" against Pyongyang,.

Congressman from the territory of Guam Madeleine Bordallo expressed confidence in the ability of the US army to protect the territory from the "deeply disturbing" threat from the DPRK. She called on Donald Trump to demonstrate "firm leadership" and cooperate with the international community in order to de-escalate tension.

Independent political analyst Alexander Safonov believes that Trump's idle talk bothered the belligerent wing of the Republican Party, which insists on the most stringent measures against North Korea, Iran and Russia.

"As far as I understand, McCain's criticism of Donald Trump is that, despite Tramp's and his administration's many promises to influence the DPRK in one way or another, it did not bring any meaningful results: the DPRK continues to test, including missile. In accordance with this, McCain and his associates insist that Trump take more effective steps. The question is that for this there are not so many opportunities ", - quotes the expert of radio" Sputnik ".

He, like McCain, believes that America needs to negotiate with China, which, however, has many interests on the Korean Peninsula that rarely overlap with the American.



"From the point of view of McCain, more stringent measures are required in relation to the DPRK. As far as I understand, they imply, among other things, the possibility of military intervention to prevent a threat to the territory of the United States. Now the various statements of the North Korean side are being discussed, including threats to strike at the American territory. This, of course, adds to the nervousness of international relations in the region, "Safonov concluded..
