US President Donald Trump has 'lit the wick of war' and will be made to pay with a 'hail of fire', North Korea's foreign minister has warned.
The stinging statement was made by foreign minister Ri Yong Ho - who last month claimed that Trump had 'declared war' on Twitter.
The US President has said that he views dialogue with Kim Jong-un 's regime as a waste of time, and branded the North Korean President 'Rocket Man' in a speech to the UN .
In today's outburst, TASS news agency reports, Ri said: "With his bellicose and insane statement at the United Nations, Trump, you can say, has lit the wick of a war against us.
"We need to settle the final score, only with a hail of fire, not words."
