Kim Yo Jong said his country would not simply dismiss his words as “the foolish opinion of his prime minister.” Biden should expect serious consequences because of his threatening rhetoric.

“The adversaries are eager to conduct nuclear war drills and they are deploying nuclear assets near the Korean Peninsula, and we strongly exercise our right to self-defense in direct contact with them,” Kim Yo Jong said. He called South Korean President Yoon a fool for his efforts to bolster his country’s defenses and expand its own conventional missile systems in cooperation with the United States. He puts his absolute trust in America, yet he gets only promises in return.

Kim Jong-un sees military maneuvers as a threat

South Korea’s Ministry of Reunification called his comments absurd. They underscored the tension and frustration in the North over allied efforts to strengthen its nuclear deterrent, it said in a statement.

During their summit, Biden and Yoon announced new nuclear deterrence initiatives. For example, for the first time in decades, nuclear-armed US submarines will continue to be stationed in South Korea and coordination on military exercises will be strengthened. In addition, the two sides committed to bilateral presidential consultations in the event of a North Korean nuclear attack, the establishment of a Nuclear Advisory Council, and enhanced information sharing on nuclear and strategic weapons deployment programs.
