North Korea has long pursued a nuclear weapons program, and it is thought to possess lots of these weapons. Six underground atomic blast tests have been conducted.
South Korea held a large martial parade last week that featured a flypast of a US tactical fighter and a nuclear missile capable of carrying a large weapon.
Yoon warned the North against using nuclear weapons in his speech that morning. The North Korean government did finish on that day, according to the statement.
KCNA said Kim made the remarks on Monday, the same day the North has said its Supreme People’s Assembly did meet to discuss amending the country’s law. Since Monday, the news agency has n’t made any mention of the assembly’s discussions.
The likelihood of a constitutional amendment being approved by the program will affect how closely it is monitored because of Kim’s claim that unity is no longer possible and that the South was a distinct nation and” a deputy enemy.”
Such a move would formalize Kim’s tear, following a decades-old strategy of national unity and efforts to boost ties, such as a summit held in 2018, where their leaders declared there would be no more war and a new era of peace had begun.
In a separate report, KCNA claimed Kim wrote to Russian President Vladimir Putin, joking of him as his” closest Comrade,” and adding that” strategic and cooperative relations” between the two nations will be improved.
