On Tuesday, in his first address to the United Nations, President Trump threatened to totally destroy North Korea if circumstances required the US to defend itself or its allies.

Many Americans fear the situation may escalate into the most destructive war the world has seen. Others claim relations will stabilize. KCSB’s Amarica Rafanelli spoke with Professor of Poltical Science Bridget Coggins more on the issue.
