North Korea–United States relations

North Korea–United States relations (Chosŏn'gŭl: 북미관계; hancha: 北美關係; RR: Bukmi gwangye) are hostile and have developed primarily during the Korean War, but in recent years have been largely defined by North Korea's five tests of nuclear weapons, its development of long-range missiles capable of striking targets thousands of miles away, and its ongoing threats to strike the United States and South Korea with nuclear weapons and conventional forces. President Bush referred to North Korea as part of "The Axis of evil" because of the threat of its nuclear capabilities.
