Live Mint  

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un during a five-day plenary meeting of North Korea's ruling Workers’ Party that concluded on Friday, delivered a sharp criticism of the United States, labeling it as “the most reactionary state that regards anti-communism as its invariable state policy.” Kim’s comments were part of a broader condemnation of the expanding US-South Korea-Japan security partnership, which he described as evolving into “a nuclear military bloc for aggression”. North Korea's strategy to counter US aggression revealed Kim Jong Un's speech, reported by North Korea's official news agency, the Korean Central News Agency, outlined the country’s direction for counteracting what it perceives as US aggression.

US, Ukrainian, and South Korean assessments reportedly indicate that North Korea has provided troops and conventional weapons systems to support Russia’s war against Ukraine.
