WASHINGTON, July 26 (Yonhap) -- The United States and its allies will take appropriate steps to hold North Korea accountable should the recalcitrant country conduct a nuclear test, a National Security Council (NSC) spokesperson said Tuesday.
John Kirby, NSC coordinator for strategic communications, also noted the North may continue to be ready to conduct a test.
"We have been very clear that North Korea could be ready to conduct a nuclear test. That is something we said very, very openly," Kirby said in a press briefing, held virtually.
"These tests have in the past and if they test in the future will in the future just add to the insecurity and instability on the Korean Peninsula," he added. "Again, we would react appropriately along with allies and partners."
Seoul and Washington have both said the North appears to have completed all preparations for what will be its seventh nuclear test, with U.S. officials earlier anticipating Pyongyang to conduct a test as early as in May.

Yeah, of course. Probably involving ice cream and a quick sniff.
Sternly worded letter?
Strong memos IN ALL CAPS are being drafted.
Blah blah.
Fluck Kirby, deep state hack. I just saw a 24 year old episode of Huell Howsers PBS series “California’s Gold” two night ago. It was an excellent episode about The Blue Angels Winter training grounds down near the Cali / Mexico boarder, El Centro. It was a great episode until this “young” clock clucker Kirby shows up and Huell interviews him. I guess he was some kind of Spokesperson for the Blue Angels back in the day. Treacherous POS
MAGA sanctions!
Brandon will "stabilize" it how? By selling them some crude out of the SPR dirt cheap?

Unless you are prepared to start a catastrophic war, there isn’t really anything you can do to stop North Korea or Iran for that matter from developing or testing a nuclear weapon.
In Iran’s case Biden would like to fund their development which is insane.
You’re right. The Norks have a patron in the ChiComs and Iran similarly with Russia. Iran has more vulnerability though due to their proximity to Israel.
SLO jo going to send more money?
Official State Department clutching pearls and fainting couch ready.
In my opinion, North Korea is less of a threat than Iran, NK is run by a single family as long as we don’t provoke them, they will be content to starve their people and live like kings.
Iran is run by ideologues and consider Israel and USA to be mortal enemies

Another low-IQ halfwit in the Biden administration flapping his lips.
“These tests have in the past and if they test in the future will in the future just add to the insecurity and instability on the Korean Peninsula,” he added.
*************
“if they test in future will in the future”
Sounds like something Kamala would say.
With a big check.
I think Joe has a contagious form of dementia.
Of course Dr. Tony the Science will say there is no such thing but we know who he works for.
