North Korean Leader Says No Force Can Undermine Nations Status


(MENAFN) North Korean leader Kim Jong Un declared that no entity can threaten the sovereignty or security of his nation, according to state media reports on Wednesday.

“The cause of building a powerful country... is being reviewed proudly now that our state has attained a remarkable status,” media quoted Kim as stating during a speech at the national founding day ceremony held on Tuesday at Pyongyang's Mansudae Assembly Hall.

The country celebrated the 77th anniversary of its founding.

“Now no one, by whatever means, can do harm to the absolute status and security of our state, and no force can reverse the powerful current towards an era of prosperity, which we have created by ourselves,” Kim emphasized.

Kim reiterated North Korea's growing "dignity and powerfulness," asserting that the country’s future would not be determined by foreign powers.

In his address, Kim also referenced the North Korean troops deployed in support of Russia during the ongoing war in Ukraine, acknowledging their role in the conflict.

Following the end of World War II and the subsequent liberation of the Korean Peninsula from Japanese occupation, the communist regime was established in the north. In August 1948, a new Supreme People’s Assembly was elected, and on September 3, the country’s new constitution was adopted. The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) was officially proclaimed on September 9, 1948, with Kim Il Sung serving as its first premier.
