Obama says US is prepared for North Korean attack

Monday, 22 June 2009

US President Barack Obama says America is "fully prepared" for any action by North Korea.

Pyongyang has declared itself "a proud nuclear power" that would hurt the US if provoked.

The White House has increased its protection for Hawaii amid speculation that North Korea is preparing a long range missile test in the direction of the Pacific island - possibly on July the 4th.

• Why trying to go on a diet is never really a piece of cake
