In the presence of ruler Kim Jong Un, North Korea’s ruling Workers’ Party began an important end-of-year meeting. Kim described 2023 as a year of “great change” at the plenary session of the Central Committee of the North Korean Workers’ Party, state news agency KCNA reported on Wednesday. North Korea has achieved great “victories” in all areas of socialist construction and strengthening national strength.
Kim has for several years used plenary sessions of the Workers’ Party Central Committee instead of the once traditional New Year’s speeches to lay out his policies in areas such as security, diplomacy and the economy. This year’s meeting comes at the end of a year in which North Korea successfully launched a spy satellite for the first time, enshrined its status as a nuclear power in the constitution and launched its most advanced intercontinental ballistic missile to date.
Kim said in his speech that Pyongyang’s new strategic weapons and spy satellite had put the country in a “position of a military power,” according to KCNA. According to the state news agency, the meeting began on Tuesday and will revolve around six main points, including the implementation of policy guidelines this year and a look at the “direction of the fight” in the coming year.
Last week, the ruler of the country, which is largely isolated internationally, threatened a nuclear attack if his country was “provoked with nuclear weapons.” The United States and South Korea recently warned that a nuclear attack by North Korea would result in the end of leadership in Pyongyang. The UN Security Council has imposed numerous sanctions once morest the country because of North Korea’s nuclear weapons and missile program.
