North Korea unveils heightened stance against US‑allied bloc
Kim Jong Un announced that North Korea has adopted the "toughest strategy" against the United States, South Korea, and Japan, according to state television KCNA on Sunday.
Kim Jong Un announced the "change" in relations with Washington, Tokyo, and Seoul during a plenary session of the central committee of the Workers' Party of Korea.
"This reality clearly shows to which direction we should advance and what we should do and how," stated in Kim Jong Un's directive, the content of which is quoted by KCNA television. However, the details of the new strategy were not disclosed.
KCNA, in a deceitful, propagandistic message, reported that the trilateral alliance between South Korea, the USA, and Japan has transformed into a "nuclear military bloc," and South Korea has become an "anti-communist outpost" of the USA.
Pyongyang wants to develop cooperation with Moscow
During the meeting, which took place from December 23rd to 27th, the North Korean communist party authorities also pledged to promote relations with "friendly" countries.
In the past year, North Korea signed a military agreement with Russia including a mutual defence commitment.
Washington and Seoul criticized the military cooperation between the two countries, including the deployment of North Korean troops to fight alongside Russia in the war in Ukraine.
