Latest missile launch shows capacity to attack US -Kim Jong-un
Iron fisted North Korean President Kim Jong-un has described the recent nuclear tests carried out by his country as a ‘magnificent’ stride while addressing thousands at his party’s congress.
Kim says nuclear achievements shows North Korea’s endless power, hailing the historic test of what North Korea claims was a hydrogen bomb in January.
The state’s leader said it had shown the world that it would not be cowed by sanctions or outside pressure.
The test, which was followed a month later by a successful long-range rocket launch, “clearly demonstrated to the whole world our undefeatable spirit and endless power … in defiance of malicious pressure and sanctions by enemy forces,” he said.
Most experts have questioned the North’s H-bomb claim, saying that the detected yield from the January test was far too low for a full-fledged thermonuclear device.
