On July 27^th, the North Korean leader spoke at a ceremony to mark the anniversary of the Korean War armistice. In his speech, he stated that the country’s armed forces are fully ready to respond to any crisis. Kim Jong Un said that North Korea’s nuclear deterrent also stands fully prepared to use its power faithfully, accurately and promptly in line with its mission.

He added that Seoul is mistaken if it considers a ‘preemptive strike’ against North Korea and neutralisation of at least part of its military potential possible.
