(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Kim Kyung-yun = North Korea revealed that it had launched an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) Hwasong-17 in the presence of Chairman Kim Jong-un, blatantly showing its will to confront the US.
As Chairman Kim personally nailed a long-term confrontation with the United States and showed his will to spur the development of nuclear weapons, the situation on the Korean Peninsula is returning to the tense situation in 2017.
According to the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) on the 25th, Chairman Kim said the day before, “The (North Korea’s) strategic force is fully prepared to thoroughly block and deter any dangerous military intentions of the US imperialists.” We will prepare for a long-term confrontation with US imperialism thoroughly with strong military technology,” he said.
North Korea has been emphasizing the principle of ‘strong for strong, first for first’ and has opened up the possibility that the US-DPRK relationship might turn into confrontation or negotiation depending on the attitude of the United States, but now it seems that it has made up its mind with a ‘confrontation’.
To this end, he clearly stated his intention to spur the development of nuclear weapons.
The news agency repeated expressions such as “a burning determination to develop more invincible nuclear attack methods”, “invincible self-defense nuclear war deterrence”, and “nuclear sword”. The word ‘nuclear’ was used 13 times in the 3,500 women’s report by the Central News Agency.
In particular, the offensive expression of ‘nuclear attack means’ has not appeared in North Korean media since 2017, and ‘nuclear war deterrence’ was mentioned for the first time since the 8th Party Congress last year.
It emphasized their logic of escaping the US nuclear threat by securing the ability to attack the US mainland with an ICBM loaded with a nuclear warhead. .

With the latest ICBM launch breaking the nuclear and missile moratorium for the first time in four years, the possibility of a seventh nuclear test is raised.
In North Korea, it was discovered that the entrance to the nuclear test site in Punggye-ri, Gilju-gun, North Hamgyeong Province, which had already been blown up four years ago, was restored, and a 5MW (megawatt) reactor was found to continue operating at the Yongbyon nuclear facility.
This time, it was said that the ICBM was launched at an elevated angle for the safety of neighboring countries, but next time, it is possible to launch a normal-angle launch toward the Pacific Ocean for a maximum range test.
In the end, it is widely observed that North Korea will turn the hopes of establishing peace on the Korean Peninsula through negotiations, symbolized by the ‘spring of the Korean Peninsula’ in 2018, to no avail, and return the clock to 2017, when North Korea waged a ‘nuclear button’ war of words.
North Korea’s shift to a confrontational structure by putting aside the possibility of negotiating with the United States is interpreted as showing a clear presence amid changes in the international community’s new Cold War structure and the conservative government to enter South Korea.
It is possible that the recent crisis in Ukraine has had a significant impact.
Ukraine was considered the third largest nuclear-armed country in the world with 1,800 nuclear warheads and ICBMs deployed during the Soviet era. was guaranteed the integrity and independent sovereignty of
However, following receiving the invasion from Russia this time, it has not been able to obtain reliable assistance from the international community and is facing a difficult situation. This is also the reason for the analysis that North Korea will show a stronger obsession with ‘nuclear’ while looking at the situation in Ukraine.
In response, KCNA cited the “rapidly changing international political situation” as the reason for the development of the new ICBM and emphasized, “We must make it clear that anyone who tries to infringe on the safety of our country will inevitably pay a terrible price.”
“The rapidly changing world political situation shows that if we do not have the national defense capability at a reasonable level, we cannot help but be dragged and coerced by external military threats, and furthermore, it is impossible to protect the very existence of the state and its people,” said Ryomyong, a foreign propaganda media the day before. It is also consistent with the point pointed out.

It can also be interpreted as an attempt to take the lead in new negotiations, judging that there is nothing to be gained by waiting for sanctions relief on North Korea through negotiations with the United States.
Yang Moo-jin, a professor at the University of North Korean Studies, said, “After seeing the collapse of Ukraine, which gave up its nuclear weapons, there is a sense of crisis and reaffirmation of the necessity of strengthening nuclear deterrence. will,” he analyzed.
