North Korea’s crackpot leader Kim Jong-un vows to ‘send Donald Trump a message’ amid claims he will launch new missiles within DAYS

DOUBLE-CHINNED despot Kim Jong-un will conduct a nuclear missile test "at any moment" as a "warning shot" to Donald Trump, it is claimed.

A source inside the South Korean foreign ministry has said the crackpot leader has been acting out provocations at least every two weeks.

The source said Kim Jong-un is preparing another launch to coincide with when Trump enters the White House in January.

He added: "We have been maintaining contact with both camps, not just with Hillary but also with Donald Trump.

"We are prepared for every possible scenario.

"If you look back at the intervals (between provocations) it's 10 -14 days so it can happen any time.

"North Korea already the latest Musudan medium-range missile test so it's highly likely they will do it any time in the coming days and weeks.

"Our military and intelligence services estimate that if there's any political decision from the top it can happen at any time."

Lee Sang-hwa, director general of the South's North Korean nuclear affairs bureau, said the country often times launches to coincide with major political events.

Lee said: ""There is an interesting pattern: whenever we or the international community have an important occasion, they seem to select those milestone days.

"As the US, Korea and China undergo political transformation through this year and next year, Pyongyang may see that period as a window of opportunity for influencing the outside political environment to their favour.

"This means it is highly likely they will continue with the terror of this year and lots of provocations."

Kim Jong-un has this year alone conducted two nuclear tests and 24 missile launches; more than his father Kim Jong-il did during his entire 18-year reign.
