US President Donald Trump took to Twitter at 6:39 AM on Aug. 16, 2017 to praise North Korean leader Kim Jong Un for suspending his threat to fire nuclear missles at Guam, a US territory with US army bases currently in service.

In recent weeks, Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un have been engaging in fiery rhetoric, leading many to believe that a nuclear fallout was inevitable.

In response to a successful test of an ICBM (Inter-Continental Ballistic Missle) conducted by North Korea on July 4, 2017, the United States and South Korea conducted military excercises in the latter country. Kim Jong Un saw this as a threat, and said that North Korea “vowed revenge a thousands times” against the US and South Korea. In response to this, Trump said that the US would “unleash fire and fury like the world has never seen” on North Korea if it attacked the United States or her allies.

Violent talk ensued for weeks. Finally, on August 15, 2017, Kim Jong Un was briefed on attacking Guam with missles in the North Korean arsenal, but opted to wait.

This is an evolving issue, and this story will be updated with the revelation of any new information.
