    Kim said he would no longer seek reconciliation and reunification with South Korea, noting the “persisting uncontrollable crisis situation”.

    Buried in the article is the real shocker. This would be like China saying they no longer seek reconciliation and reunification with Taiwan or the US dropping their blockade of Cuba because of “the controlled end of the Cuban situation.”

        I disagree with your comment but I agree that it doesn’t break the rules. @mods let us have a discussion with people of different opinions.

        In any case, it was the Western world and the US that has been posturing. They hold north Koreans under brutal suffocating sanctions. North Korea resisting this must not be condemned.

      Because they have nuclear weapons. Imagine the disaster of the Vietnam war, but with a couple of USA cities obliterated by nuclear warheads.
