North Korea intensified its rhetoric on Saturday, suggesting that President Donald Trump's visit to Asia showed he was a "destroyer" as he "begged for war" on the Korean peninsula, Reuters reported.

“Trump, during his visit, laid bare his true nature as destroyer of world peace and stability and begged for a nuclear war on the Korean peninsula,” the foreign ministry spokesman said in a statement carried by the state news agency.

Trump warned North Korea on Wednesday not to underestimate the United States as he wrapped up his visit to South Korea.
