On Tuesday, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un called for strengthening the country’s naval capabilities, accusing the US of turning waterways near the Korean peninsula into the most unstable waters with the danger of a nuclear war.
Kim added in an address to celebrate Navy Day that gang bosses of the United States, Japan, and South Korea announced regular combined military drills, according to KCNA, referring to their August 18 meeting at Camp David, Maryland.
The leaders of the United States, South Korea, and Japan decided to increase military and economic cooperation in order to project unity in the face of China’s influence and the North’s nuclear threats in their first standalone meeting.
Kim went on to say, “Owing to the reckless confrontational moves of the U.S. and other hostile forces, the waters of the Korean Peninsula have been reduced into the world’s biggest war hardware concentration spot, the most unstable waters with the danger of a nuclear war”.
Last week, South Korea and the United States began the Ulchi Freedom Shield summer exercises, which are intended to improve their cooperative responses to North Korea’s nuclear and missile threats. Pyongyang has consistently characterized the drills as a rehearsal for war.
Kim stated that North Korea’s Naval must maintain constant combat alertness, as well as radically modernize its weapons and equipment.
“He stressed that the navy of the DPRK would become a component of the state nuclear deterrence carrying out the strategic duty”, KCNA outlined.
