North Korean Supreme Kim Jong Un attended the test of the new multiple-launch rockets that are scheduled to be put into use this year. 240-mm system (one of the major systems for combat units till 2026), which will help to modernize the nuclear arsenal of North Korea, is a strategic response of the country against South Korea.
As its diplomatic approach with the U. S. and South Korea hit a roadblock, North Korea made every effort to beef up its weapons program and announce its military might to intimidate the U. S. to consider its status as a nuclear power. Kim’s tactics encompass all kinds of shots with varying levels of complexity, representative of his ambition to advance high-tech weaponry that could use intercontinental rocket guidance to target states near the U. S. territories.
The command of Kim to further develop the production process points to the continued efforts of North Korea towards food production conversion into more advanced weaponry, which may bring about a change in regional power balance. The emergence of these super weapons has brought anxiety and concerns for South Korea’s already overpopulated capital area but opens door to North Korea’s ambition to exporting military technology probably to Russia.
In fact, such answers do not entirely remove the doubts about whether North Korea also supplies Russia with weapons to the country in which Russia is in conflict with Ukraine. Known for his close support not only to Moscow but also to Beijing, Kim tries to exploit the Russian-Chinese partnership first and foremost to keep Washington’s pressure at bay and remain out of diplomatic conflict.
With every North Korean single ballistic missile test, regional awareness becomes more and more elevated, which increases the opportunity for conflicts and the proliferation of weapons, including long-distance rockets. The international community carefully supervises Kim Jong Un’s actions because they are interested in maintaining stability in the region and face broader implications for the North.
