Call for maximum productive effort his war industry because, as he says, “war is inevitable” and the United States and Seoul are alternately the targets of his bellicose rhetoric. He emphasizes that “the reckoning is approaching.” It is increasing the expansion of its military apparatus and has announced the construction of three spy satellites, new drones and the carrying out of further nuclear tests for the year that has just begun.

North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un violently returns to the scene of the crime. Once again he risks a dangerous upward game in the network of blackmail with which the “esteemed comrade” wants to increase his political and international weight. The US “diagnosis” aligns its position with that of Russia and Iran. “According to our information, North Korea has recently supplied Russia with missile launch systems and several ballistic missiles,” the US National Security Council spokesman interrupted. John Kirby. It is inevitable that the “temperature” will rise. Dangerous. According to Seoul authoritiesNorth Korea fired “200 shots in the Jangsan-got areas of northern Baengnyeong Island and northern Yeonpyeong Island,” forcing residents to evacuate.

The climate of expectation that characterized the 2018 meeting between Kim and the then South Korean president now appears very distant Moon Jae-in and the following year with the former president Use Donald Trump. Once the gentle tones are dismissed, everything is a crescendo of accusations and threats. “Kim Jong-un has now publicly distanced himself from the policy of reconciliation and unification with the South,” Leif-Eric Easley, a professor of international studies at Ewha University in Seoul, told Portal.
The words of the leader, dealing with the ongoing purges within the regime and under pressure from atavistic problems such as the famine that is ravaging the country, leave no room for doubt. “If we look closely at the confrontational military actions of enemy forces, the word 'war' has become a realistic option and not an abstract concept,” he said recently.
