North Korea Launches Missile That Flies Over 1,000 Kilometers
by Karen Faulkner, Worthy News Correspondent
(Worthy News) – As the outgoing US Secretary of State visited South Korea, North Korea on Monday fired a missile that flew around 1,100 kilometers (685 miles) before landing in water between the Korean peninsula and Japan, Associated Press/Reuters reports.
Ruled by Supreme Leader Kim Jong-un since 2011, North Korea has remained staunchly hostile to South Korea and has frequently threatened to invade it. Accordingly, North Korea’s development of nuclear weapons and missile technology is a cause of grave concern for South Korea and its western allies, including the United States.
South Korean officials reported that Monday’s missile was launched while US Secretary of State Antony Blinken was visiting Seoul on his last official trip to the region.
Noting that Russia has sought the assistance of Pyongyang in its ongoing invasion of Ukraine, Blinken said in a statement: “North Korea “is already receiving Russian military equipment and training. Now we have reason to believe that Moscow intends to share advanced space and satellite technology with Pyongyang.”
For its part, Seoul claims Kim Jong-un has taken advantage of the recent political in South Korea following the impeachment of former President Yoon Suk Yeol to launch missile tests. “The turmoil will also make it difficult for South Korea to begin its relationship with a second Trump administration on steady footing,” AP/Reuters noted.
