Trump aide: No military solution in North Korea

 

BRIDGEWATER - US President Donald Trump's chief strategist Steve Bannon says there's no military solution to the threat posed by North Korea and its nuclear ambitions, despite the president's recent pledge to answer further aggression with "fire and fury."

 

"There's no military solution (to North Korea's nuclear threats), forget it," Bannon said in an interview with The American Prospect posted online Wednesday. "Until somebody solves the part of the equation that shows me that 10 million people in Seoul don't die in the first 30 minutes from conventional weapons, I don't know what you're talking about, there's no military solution here, they got us."

 

Bannon was also asked about the white supremacist movement, whose march on Charlottesville, Virginia, last weekend led to deadly violence. He dismisses them as "losers," ''a fringe element" and "a collection of clowns."

 

The White House did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
