The North Korean Central Telegraph Agency (KCNA) reported that, on March 27th, Kim Jong Un listened to a report from the DPRK Nuclear Weapons Institute on the progress of quantitative strengthening of the country's nuclear armed forces in recent years. He called for an ideal readiness for the use of nuclear weapons anywhere and at any time. According to KCNA, the leader of the DPRK wants the superior power of North Korea to make enemies afraid, as well as to protect the country.
“Dear Comrade Kim Jong Un said that it is necessary to give impetus to the consistent production of nuclear weapons, and the Institute of Nuclear Weapons and the nuclear energy sector should prospectively expand the production of nuclear raw materials suitable for the creation of weapons, for the sake of consistent implementation of the plan of the Party’s Central Committee to increase the stock of nuclear weapons exponentially,” KCNA reported.
It was earlier informed that North Korea conducted a number of exercises to test the systems of its nuclear facilities.
