North Korea vows to build overwhelming military power
(Baonghean.vn) - Ms. Kim Yo Jong, the powerful sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, declared that the country will continue to build the strongest and overwhelming military power to protect sovereignty and regional peace, North Korean news agency KCNA reported on Wednesday.
A series of US military exercises in the region this year, starting with live-fire drills conducted with “South Korean puppet military forces,” are pushing the regional security environment into dangerous chaos, Ms. Kim said.

“We will continue to build the strongest and most overwhelming military power to defend our sovereignty, security and regional peace,” the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) quoted Ms. Kim as saying.
The US and South Korean militaries have conducted a series of larger-scale and more intense exercises in recent months under a pledge by their leaders to improve military readiness against North Korea’s military threats. About 100 military aircraft conducted a two-week air exercise this month, according to the South Korean military.
North Korea says the US military drills are preparations for a nuclear war against Pyongyang. Washington and Seoul say the drills are defensive in nature and are conducted regularly to maintain readiness./.
