Britain must €œstep up€� to deal with North Korea as it is on the path to
developing missiles that could strike London, the Defence Secretary
warned today.

In an exclusive interview with the Standard, Gavin Williamson stressed
that the pariah regime was a €œmassive threat€� and a €œreal danger€� to the UK.

Britain would €œnever hesitate to deal with aggression and threats€�, he
added. Two Royal Navy warships are heading to join operations with the
American fleet and other allies in the region.

Hours after Donald Trump warned of the €œnuclear menace€� posed by the
East Asian countrys supreme leader, Kim Jong-un, Mr Williamson said:
€œNorth Korea is a massive threat. They are a real danger to this
country. They are currently on the pathway to have ballistic missiles
that could strike London.
