The White House said Friday that North Korea remained an “unusual and extraordinary threat” to the US just days after President Trump declared that the rogue regime “is no longer a nuclear threat.”

The Trump administration issued what was a routine notice to Congress describing the threat to justify keeping sanctions on North Korea in place.

“The existence and risk of proliferation of weapons-usable fissile material on the Korean Peninsula and the actions and policies of the Government of North Korea continue to pose an unusual and extraordinary threat to the national security, foreign policy, and economy of the United States,” the notice said.

But Trump, after returning from his summit with Kim Jong Un in Singapore last week, struck a far less ominous tone.

“Just landed – a long trip, but everybody can now feel much safer than the day I took office. There is no longer a Nuclear Threat from North Korea,” Trump tweeted June 13.

“Meeting with Kim Jong Un was an interesting and very positive experience. North Korea has great potential for the future!”

Trump later suspended military exercises with South Korea as the US and the North negotiate the president’s demand for “complete denuclearization.”
