YIGO, Guam (Reuters) — There was a sense of relief throughout Guam on Tuesday (August 15), as Kim Jong Un signalled a pause in his plan to fire missiles to land in waters near the U.S. Pacific territory of Guam.
Residents in Guam were reassured about Kim Jong Un’s change of plans, “No attack? Awesome. What else, can I say, right?” said Perez.
“(If) he had decided to move on with what he had promised, then we were ready…our military people are out there protecting our island,” added Taitano, another Resident of Guam.
The office of Guam Governor Eddie Calvo held a news conference on Tuesday afternoon saying there was “no changes in our [security] forecast,” and assured residents and tourists that “things remain calm.”
