North Korea Says It Practiced a ‘Tactical Nuclear Strike’ and Invasion of South KoreaFrances Martel 31 Aug 2023
The communist government of North Korea revealed on Thursday that it held multiple military exercises aimed at practicing nuclear weapons assaults on South Korea and “occupying the whole territory” of the country.
The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), the communists’ state media outlet, detailed the exercises and claimed them necessary in response to the Ulchi Freedom Shield annual military exercises currently taking place with American and South Korean troops. Ulchi Freedom began on August 21 and is expected to have some exercises continue into September.
Ulchi Freedom Shield exercises have been a staple of the U.S.-South Korean partnership for years. Washington, under former President Donald Trump, suspended the exercises briefly in 2018 in recognition of communist dictator Kim Jong-un agreeing to meet with him in Singapore, the first such meeting between the heads of state of both countries. By August 2018, however, Secretary of Defense Jim Mattis confirmed that the drills would go on.
Kim’s public belligerence has escalated significantly under leftist current President Joe Biden, who has failed to organize any meaningful high-level exchanges with North Korea. The White House claimed this month that Biden offered Kim an in-person meeting “without preconditions,” but Kim declined.
