Summary

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un urged a “limitless” expansion of the country’s nuclear program to counter what he called US-led threats, citing escalating military cooperation between the US, South Korea, and Japan.

In a speech to military commanders, Kim emphasized war preparations and criticized US support for Ukraine, accusing Washington of using Ukraine to extend its influence.

This comes after North Korea deployed an estimated 10,000 troops to assist Russia in its war against Ukraine, further strengthening ties between Pyongyang and Moscow under a recently signed pact.

Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
