North Korean Leader Kim Jong Un Promises Toughest Anti-U.S. Policy Ahead Of Trump's Second Term

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un pledged to implement the “toughest” anti-U.S. strategy, according to state media. Kim criticized the U.S.-South Korea-Japan alliance as a "nuclear military bloc" and emphasized the need for advancements in military defense technology and the mental resilience of North Korean soldiers. Experts believe Trump's prior talks with Kim are unlikely to resume soon due to his focus on global conflicts and North Korea's support for Russia's war in Ukraine. North Korea's deepening military ties with Russia complicate efforts to denuclearize in exchange for economic and political incentives.
