Missile Tests and Submarine Construction

According to Главком: Kim Jong Un observed the testing of surface-to-air missiles and the construction of a nuclear submarine capable of launching these missiles. The tests took place on Wednesday off the eastern coast of North Korea. The missiles that were tested destroyed airborne targets at distances of up to 200 km. This activity is part of the ruling party's efforts to modernize the country's naval fleet.

Kim Jong Un noted that the 8700-ton nuclear submarine, which he was observing the construction of, is an important element in the development of naval forces. He also emphasized the development of 'powerful secret weapons' and the construction of new destroyers, indicating intentions to strengthen North Korea's military capabilities.

Military Brotherhood with Russia

Additionally, the North Korean leader highlighted the importance of military brotherhood with Russia, stating that this cooperation will 'develop unceasingly.' These steps demonstrate Pyongyang's desire to strengthen its naval capabilities and maintain strategic ties with other countries.

Kim Jong Un's actions indicate a continuation of the policy of increasing North Korea's military potential, which may raise concerns among neighboring states and the international community. Cooperation with Russia may signal a strengthening of alliances in the region, potentially impacting the geopolitical situation in East Asia. Testing new technologies and modernizing the naval fleet may be a response to growing military threats from other countries.
