North Korea|Kim was speaking at a special forces base.
North Korea autocratic leader Kim Jong-un has again made threats to use nuclear weapons.
North Korean state media reported that Kim said on Wednesday that his forces would not hesitate to use all offensive forces at their disposal, including nuclear weapons, if the country’s southern neighbor or its ally the United States attacked North Korean territory. Kim made the statement while inspecting a special forces military base.
Kim’s comments were preceded by a military parade organized by South Korea earlier in the week, in which the country’s president Yoon Suk-yeol threatened that it would be the end of the North Korean regime if it tried to use nuclear weapons. He said North Korea would then face a determined and overwhelming response from the South Korean armed forces and the United States.
