Kim Jong Un
On Wednesday, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un declared that the moment has come to label South Korea as the ‘most hostile’ to his country.
Kim also accused Seoul of instigating confrontation and arms buildup, while urging his country to strengthen its military capacities for self-defense and nuclear deterrence.
He made the remarks earlier this week while visiting armaments manufacturing companies.
Kim Jong Un also described the worsening bilateral relations as a new phase of change and an unavoidable reality.
Kim went on to say, “We would by no means unilaterally bring a great event by the overwhelming strength in the Korean peninsula but we have no intention of avoiding a war as well”.
North Korean leader stated that peaceful reunification is unachievable in his address at a year-end party meeting last month, adding that the government would undertake a decisive policy change in relations with South Korea.
