GET OUT NOW: Kim Jong-un orders all North
Koreans leave China' NORTH Korea has ordered all citizens working
in China to come home amid fears of nuclear war in the Korean Peninsula. Kim Jong-un has signed off on order demanding
nearly 30,000 North Koreans return to the rogue state from China. It comes as Beijing takes a tougher line on
Pyongyang amid pressure from the US. Tensions across the region have hit breaking
point as Kim refuses to give up his nuclear ICBMs.
Chinese premier Xi Jinping last month ordered
the closure of all Chinese-North Korea businesses. They were given 120 days to shut down as China
bowed to UN sanctions. Kims order is in protest to China shutting
down the North Korean companies, reports Daily NK. North Koreans are expected to be home before
the end of the year.
It comes as Pyongyang fears Beijing its
old and only ally may cut ties as tensions rise with the US. Daily Star Online revealed China may be planning
to remove Kim from power in a bid to prevent nuclear war. President Xi is said to have a personal hatred
of Kim, but is currently reported to be tolerating him. North Korea expats have also began returning
home as the rogue state prepares for war.
This weekend, unprecedented evacuation and
blackout drills were held by North Korea. War fears have reached new highs as US forces
flood into the region ahead of the arrival of US President Donald Trump next week. China has called for calm in the region as
it urges both the US and North Korea to back down from threats. Trump has hailed his work with Xi claiming
he has him on side for tackling Kim.
The US President will meet the Chinese premier
as part of his tour of the Asia-Pacific. North Koreas latest provocation came as
the rogue state promised its threat to detonate an H-bomb over the Pacific should be taken
literally. This believed to be the feared Juche Bird
a live fire test of a missile armed with a nuclear warhead. Daily Star Online revealed the US is planning
a major missile defence drill this week in the Pacific..
