The North Korean regime vowed to take its “tough” stance against the US at a meeting of the country’s ruling party last week.
The 23-27th meeting brought together senior members of the Workers’ Party of Korea, including dictator Kim Jong Un. State media KCNA said the leaders criticized the ongoing relationship between the US, Japan and South Korea, as a “nuclear war club.”
“This fact clearly shows which way we should go and what we should do and how,” said the group’s statement.
The meeting comes as North Korea faces growing tensions with Western governments after sending troops to help Russia attack Ukraine.

The Kim regime also criticized South Korea as an “anti-communist place” following this week’s meetings, a reference to President Yoon Suk-Yeul’s attempt to impose martial law earlier this month.

North Korea was quiet for almost a week after that Yoon’s effort, which was rejected by the national legislature. Kim Jong Un’s regime last commented on the matter through its state-run media outlet on December 11.

“The shocking incident of puppet Yoon Suk Yeol, who was facing administrative crisis and persecution crisis, suddenly martial law was declared and he unknowingly carried guns and knives of the fascist dictatorship,” KCNA said in a report.
“The international community is looking forward, assessing whether the martial law incident has exposed the danger to South Korean society … and that Yoon Suk Yeol’s political life may soon end,” KCNA added.
