(Washington Composite Electric) North Korea did not realize the threat to send gifts to the United States on Christmas, but the United States dare not take it lightly and still continues to monitor North Korea's trends.The so -called gifts in North Korea are generally interpreted as weapon tests.The US government believes that the birthday of North Korean leader Kim Jong -un will be another opportunity to test North Korea in early next month.

Sources who are familiar with North Korea's leadership thinking in the United States CNN (CNN) reports that American intelligence shows that North Korea has recently transferred some weapon components. As a result, the United States generally expects that North Korea will test weapons on Christmas, but the test scale is not enough to threaten the United States.

U.S. President Trump was asked on Tuesday and said with a smile when he reacted to North Korea: Maybe it was a gift.Perhaps this gift was that he gave me a beautiful vase, not a missile test.

Now Christmas has passed, and Kim Jong -un's birthday in early January next year is regarded as the next potential time for North Korea to conduct weapons testing.

A U.S. official revealed that the Trump administration has approved a series of options for the military in advance.If North Korea starts any provocative missile test or weapon test, the US military will respond quickly, including might send bombers to the Korean Peninsula and hold land -based weapons exercises.

It is unclear if the United States will take the above operations under what circumstances.In recent months, North Korea has launched several short -range missiles, but has not caused US military response.

It is reported that when the United States will deploy the army to the place close to the South Korean non -military region, the warning of North Korea is even stronger.However, U.S. officials emphasized that the existing plans for the United States are limited to showing force, not involving any direct military operations on North Korea.

According to the Yonhap News Agency, the United States has significantly increased reconnaissance aircraft to the peninsula to strengthen surveillance activities for North Korea.From the 24th to 26th, the United States sent repeated reconnaissance planes to the Korean Peninsula to perform missions, including RC-135S Snake Snake reconnaissance machines that can track the trajectory of ballistic missiles, as well as the guided missile bases, field troops, coast guns, etc. from high-altitudeE-8C combined star reconnaissance machines for precise detection and identification of ground targets.

When the U.S. reconnaissance aircraft was performed, the position recognition system was specially launched. Some analysts believed that the move was to publicly monitor the entire territory of North Korea and release the military warning signal to the North Korean side.
