According to state media, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has inspected a brand-new missile manufacturing process and production line.
His visit to the missile production line on Sunday came ahead of a s planned trip to Beijing to observe a military parade alongside Russian President Vladimir Putin and Chinese President Xi Jinping.
North Korea’s nuclear weapons and ballistic missile development programs were developed in violation of UN Security Council resolutions, and they are subject to severe international sanctions.
In response to Russia’s and China’s growing economic, military, and political support, experts and international officials claim that the sanctions have lost much of their impact.
According to Kim, the modernized production process will help boost the combat readiness of major missiles, according to the state-run Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) on Monday.
To support Moscow in its conflict with Ukraine, North Korea has sent soldiers, artillery, and missiles to Russia.
The US’s cooperation with Japan and South Korea was also criticized by the country’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which recently issued a trilateral joint statement warning of cybersecurity threats from Pyongyang.
The ministry “strongly denounces and rejects” the United States, Japan, and South Korea for using cyberspace as a “theatre of geopolitical confrontation and hostile propaganda,” according to a spokesperson in a statement released by KCNA.
The spokesperson added, using the initials of North Korea’s official name, “The more the US continues to perpetuate its anachronistic and malicious hostile acts against the DPRK through the intensified collaboration with its satellite countries, the more distrust and hostility will build up.”
