SEOUL, South Korea – North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has opened a key party meeting to discuss agricultural development, state media said Monday, following a report of “grave” food shortages in the isolated country.
Kim chaired the opening on Sunday of a plenary meeting of top ruling party officials to “analyse and review… the programme for the rural revolution in the new era, and decide on the immediate important tasks and the urgent tasks,” the official Korean Central News Agency reported. The Pyongyang regime was being forced to deal with “a complex humanitarian emergency that has food insecurity at its core”, it said in a January 2023 assessment.
But such support are efforts to “make the countries their sources of raw materials and market after completely demolishing the barrier of their national economy”, Rodong said.
