North Korea sharply criticized President Donald Trump’s plan for a Golden Dome missile-defense system, a shield intended to counter threats from rivals including Pyongyang.

The program “is an outer space nuclear war scenario supporting the US strategy for uni-polar domination,” the official Korean Central News Agency reported on Tuesday, citing a memo from an institute under the Foreign Ministry in Pyongyang.
