SEOUL: Kim Jong Un has called for an 'exponential' increase in North Korea's nuclear arsenal, including mass producing tactical nuclear weapons and developing new missiles for nuclear counterstrikes, state media said on Sunday. In a report at the end of a key party meeting in Pyongyang, Kim said the country must 'overwhelmingly beef up the military muscle' in 2023 in response to what it called US and South Korean hostility, the official KCNA reported.
Another Ukraine? Lim Eul-chul, a professor at Kyungnam University, said that the North's latest statement indicated 'they are preparing for the possibility of actual war beyond the collapse of inter-Korean relations.' He warned that if the US and South Korea responded, as was likely, by further ramping up military drills, tensions between the two Koreas would reach 'an unprecedented level' in 2023.
