Donald Trump, the former President of the United States, recently announced at a campaign rally that North Korea has 112 nuclear missiles. At this rally, held ahead of the U.S. midterm elections, he emphasized the importance of establishing good relations with leaders of nuclear-armed countries.
Close relationship with Kim Jong-un
Trump, referring to his relationship with Kim Jong-un, the leader of North Korea, stated: "I have a very good relationship with him." This comment came at a time when many analysts believe that relations between the U.S. and North Korea have been highly tense in recent years.

Military and diplomatic implications
Trump's reference to the number of North Korea's nuclear missiles could have significant implications for global security and U.S. diplomacy. While some experts believe that the existence of these nuclear weapons poses a serious threat to peace in the Asia-Pacific region, others argue that diplomacy and direct talks with North Korea could lead to a reduction in tensions.
Trump emphasized that during his presidency, he had attempted to help reduce tensions through dialogue with Kim, highlighting that he is seeking diplomatic solutions. This comes despite his past positions, which have sometimes been very harsh and anti-North Korea.
As the midterm elections approach, Trump is trying to garner voter support by recalling his past achievements in foreign policy. He clearly indicates that national security and international relations are of high importance to him.
Ultimately, this rally serves not only as an electoral event but also as an opportunity for Trump to return to the U.S. foreign policy scene with a focus on North Korea. Trump wants to show voters that he can ensure the national security of his country as a strong leader.
