North Korean leader Kim Jong Un supervised a test-launch of strategic cruise missiles and ordered full readiness to use nuclear attack capability as a defense measure against perceived security threats. The test was intended to warn countries violating North Korea’s security and demonstrate the country’s nuclear operation capabilities. Kim emphasized the importance of the country’s nuclear shield in defending national sovereignty and security. The missile launch, which occurred over the sea off the west coast of the Korean peninsula, was detected by South Korea’s military. North Korea has been developing strategic cruise missiles to deliver nuclear warheads. These missiles tend to receive less international condemnation than ballistic missiles since they are not explicitly prohibited by U.N. Security Council resolutions. The Security Council has imposed sanctions on North Korea for its ballistic missile and nuclear weapons development activities. Kim’s recent visits to military schools underscored the importance of loyalty and training for young military officers. While Kim did not mention any specific countries, his harsh rhetoric towards the United States and South Korea has persisted despite attempts at diplomatic outreach, including summit meetings with President Donald Trump.
