North Korea: North Korea will launch three more spy satellites in the new year 2024, Kim awaits US presidential election
North Korea has vowed to launch three new spy satellites in 2024, build military drones and expand its nuclear arsenal. Dictator leader Kim Jong said that US policy is making war inevitable. Kim attacked Washington at the conclusion of five days of ruling party meetings.
‘Due to the enemies’ reckless steps in attacking us, it is certain that war could break out on the Korean Peninsula at any time,’ according to state news agency KCNA. He ordered the army to be ready for any attack. Kim’s speech comes ahead of a year that will see key elections in both South Korea and the United States.
Kim waits for US elections
Experts estimate that North Korea is waiting for the US presidential elections in November. It is believed that the US may see the return of former President Donald Trump, who traded both threats and historic diplomacy with Kim. Seoul’s Unification Ministry said in a statement analyzing the KCNA report that ‘further provocations to highlight North Korea’s presence ahead of the US presidential election are always possible.’
Apart from this, Kim has pledged to manufacture more nuclear weapons and modern drones. State media said on Sunday that North Korea’s leader has called for war preparations to deal with the United States. Kim Jong Un made the comments at a meeting of party workers to set North Korea’s objectives for the new year. .
If Trump returns…
Observers say Kim believes an increased nuclear capability would provide him an opportunity to initiate high-level summit diplomacy with the United States to seek sanctions relief if former President Donald Trump returns to the White House after the election.
During the five-day meeting that ended on Saturday, Kim said the anti-North Korea moves this year by the US and its supporters were unprecedented, according to the official Korean Central News Agency. This has brought the Korean Peninsula to the brink of war. Kim cited military exercises between the US and South Korea, the deployment of bombers and nuclear-armed submarines in South Korea, etc.
