Senior US security officials have said that an attack from North Korea is not imminent but also cautioned that the possibility of war is greater than it was a decade ago.

CIA Director Mike Pompeo told CBS News in an interview that the Trump Administration has done a fine job of not drawing red lines that it is “not prepared to” enforce.

“An attack from North Korea is not something that is imminent. The American people should know that this administration is doing everything with its power.

The President has enabled the intelligence community and the Department of Defence, to be sure, that we’re protecting America from this threat,” Pompeo said.
