North Korea has issued a stark warning over U.S. President Donald Trump’s proposed “Golden Dome” missile defense system, accusing Washington of risking a new arms race by militarizing space and destabilizing nuclear deterrence.
In a statement Tuesday via state news agency KCNA, Pyongyang’s Foreign Ministry condemned the $175 billion initiative as “a very dangerous threatening initiative” that could turn outer space into “a potential nuclear war field.” The U.S., it said, is “hell-bent on militarizing outer space” under the guise of defense.
Unveiled on May 20, the Golden Dome plan would use satellites equipped with advanced sensors and interceptors to detect and neutralize missile launches from countries such as North Korea, Iran, Russia and China. Trump has said the system is essential for U.S. security and survival, placing it under the command of a senior Space Force general.
North Korea’s Institute for American Studies dismissed the program as “the height of arrogance” and a “typical product of ‘America First,’” warning that it could fuel global instability rather than prevent it.
The backlash isn’t isolated. China accused the U.S. of undermining international security, while Russia, after initial criticism, has called for diplomatic engagement on the issue.
While Trump remains committed to the plan, touting it as a breakthrough defense measure, security analysts warn it could provoke countermeasures from rival powers and faces serious technological and political challenges.
