Kim Yo-jong has been used as the face of the pressure campaign against the US and South Korea.
SEOUL, April 30 : The influential sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un slammed US President Joe Biden for making nuclear threats, saying it marked the"dotage of the old” and would be met by a boost in her country’s atomic arsenal.
Kim Yo-jong, who has been used as the face of the pressure campaign against the US and South Korea, added that while the two countries bring more nuclear assets into the region, North Korea will respond by boosting its arsenal"in direct proportion to it.” It remains to be seen if the statements will be marked by a ramping up of provocations by Pyongyang, which has been firing ballistic missiles at a blistering pace.
Yoon was rewarded with a greater say in how America deploys its nuclear umbrella and assurances it would be used to retaliate against a North Korean strike.
