Corbyn says UK should NOT help NATO allies
Whitehall has ruled out Britain taking part in any military action, but according to Nato treaties, the UK would be bound to defend the US if Kim Jong-un attacked first.
In an article in the Mirror he said: “Well over a hundred thousand people died in Hiroshima and Nagasaki from what were small atomic bombs.
“Any nuclear conflict over North Korea today would kill millions of innocent people in the Korean peninsula and beyond, with devastating fallout in China, Japan and elsewhere.
“Trump and Kim must immediately wind down the war of rhetoric, as the German chancellor Angela Merkel has demanded. The risks of an unintended escalation into full-blown conflict are too great for the whole world.”
