Has North Korea completed nuclear development enough to use nuclear weapons?
(11-29-2022)  by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon Correspondent) @Q&A with a Pentagon Spokesperson General Ryder and Janne Pak at the Pentagon briefing on November 29, 2022. Today, the 29th, marks the 5th anniversary of the completion of North Korea's nuclear force. North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has not been spotted after launching a Hwasong-17 ballistic missile on the 22nd. After hinting that North Korea will conduct a 7th nuclear test, the fact that there is no sign yet seems to be that North Korea is taking a breather. However, it is the analysis of experts that it is possible at any time, but also, since North Korea has already conducted nuclear tests from the 1st to the 6th, it may be the dominant position not to attach much importance to the 7th nuclear test. In today's Pentagon briefing, Spokesperson General Ryder, in response to my question, "Do you think North Korea has completed its nuclear development enough to use nuclear weapons?" General Ryder answered "we know that North Korea has said that they will likely conduct a nuclear test again, that would be very destabilizing. And I think you've seen the United States as well as other...

North Korea's Kim Jong-un completes nuclear force,_ China continues to use its veto for North Korea.
(11-22-2022)  by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon Correspondent) @Q&A with a Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Sabrina Singh and Janne Pak at the Pentagon press briefing on November 22, 2022. A UN Security Council meeting was held on North Korea's recent launch of the Hwasong 17 ballistic missile, but also failed towadopt a public statement condemning it because of opposition from China and Russia. U.S. Defense Secretary Austin reportedly met with Chinese National Defense Secretary Wei at the ASEAN Defense Ministers' Meeting in Cambodia to discuss U.S.-China relations and regional and global security issues. Secretary Austin emphasized the need to manage competition with China responsibly and maintain open lines of communication, and especially urged China to play a responsible role as a permanent member of the UN Security Council. China has always vetoed the UN Security Council to protect North Korea. That is why we cannot expect any change in North Korea unless China changes its attitude. North Korea has recently claimed that if the Hwasong 17 ballistic missile is equipped with a nuclear warhead, it can hit the Korean Peninsula as well as the U.S. mainland. The fact that North Korean leader Kim Jong-un brought his young...

N.K Fired Hwasong-17 Ballistic Missile - Does China Have No Authority to Control North Korea? Or is China just standing by?
(11-18-2022)  by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon Correspondent) [news and exclusive commentary] @In response to North Korea's launch of the Hwasong-17 ballistic missile on the 18th, the United States and South Korea mobilized strategic air force assets to conduct strike drills in North Korea's launch zone. Can China Control North Korea? North Korea fired another ballistic missile today (18th, local time in South Korea). The missile launched by North Korea turned out to be a Hwasong-17 ballistic missile. The Joint Chiefs of Staff reported that the long-range ballistic missile launched into the East Sea from the Sunan area of Pyongyang at around 10:15 a.m. was detected with an ICBM flying distance of about 1,000 km, altitude of about 6,100 km, and speed of about Mach 22 (22 times the speed of sound). This can be seen as having the ability to strike the U.S. mainland, such as Guam. However, there has been no damage to the U.S. mainland yet. North Korea's launch of the Hwasong-17 ballistic missile this time is all the more noteworthy because it took place two hours after North Korean Foreign Minister Choi Sun-hee slammed the U.S. for extended deterrence. North Korean Foreign Minister...

"Is South Korea a close ally of the U.S. and China a strategic partner?"
(11-15-2022)   by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon Correspondent) @South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeal and Chinese President Xi Jinping shake hands before starting their summit in Bali, Indonesia on the 15th.(11-15-2022). @South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeal and Chinese President Xi Jinping and officials from the two countries are holding a summit meeting together. South Korean President Yoon speaking at the summit.(11-15-2022) After a long silence, the Korea-China summit was held in Bali, Indonesia, where the G20 summit is being held. South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol and Chinese President Xi Jinping held a meeting at 5:11 pm on the 15th (local time). It is the first face-to-face meeting between the leaders of South Korea and China since December 23, 2019, and in particular, the first face-to-face meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping since South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol took office in May. The meeting is all the more meaningful because it is being held amid an ongoing competition for supremacy between the U.S. and China. South Korea is a close ally with the United States, and China is an opponent that cannot be ignored because each plays a role as a strategic partner. The two leaders of Korea and...

U.S.-ROK-Japan summit, information sharing on North Korean missiles, establishment of economic and security system
(11-13-2022)  by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon Correspondent) "If North Korea conducts its 7th nuclear test, strong countermeasures will be taken" @The three-party summit between U.S. President Joe Biden and South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida was held on the 13th in Phnom Penh, Cambodia.(11/13/2022). After the South Korea-U.S. summit, a trilateral summit was held in Phnom Penh, Cambodia on the 13th (local time). It is meaningful that the leaders of South Korea, the United States and Japan held a summit ahead of North Korea's series of missile provocations and the seventh nuclear test. The trilateral summit is very important for cooperation with North Korea at a time when Russia has invaded Ukraine and started a war, China is warning that it will unify Taiwan by force, and North Korea is threatening a series of missile provocations and a seventh nuclear test. 한미 정상회담이 끝난후 한미일 3자 정상회담이 프놈펜 캄보디아에서 13일(현지시간) 열렸다. 북한의 연쇄적인 미사일 도발과 7차 핵실험을 앞두고 한미일 정상이 회담을 가진 것은 의미가 있다. 러시아가 우크라이나를 침범하고 전쟁을 일으켰고 중국은 타이완을 무력으로 통일하겠다고 경고하고 있고, 북한은 연이은 미사일 도발과 7차 핵실험을 위협하고 있는 시기에 3국 정상회담은 대북공조를 위해 매우 중요하다....

President Biden and South Korean President Yun Suk-yeol, who are attending the East Asia Summit held in Phnom Penh, Cambodia today (13th, local time) held a South Korea-U.S. summit. The White House said, "The two leaders condemned the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea’s (DPRK) destabilizing and threatening actions in recent weeks, including military operations near the border area and the launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile, and discussed our joint efforts to limit the DPRK’s ability to fund and advance its unlawful weapons of mass destruction and ballistic missile programs." 캄보디아 프놈펜에서 열린 동아시아 정상회담에 참석중인 바이든 대통령과 한국 윤석열 대통령은 오늘(13일, 현지시각) 한.미 정상회담을 가졌다. 양국 정상은 최근 몇 주 동안 접경지역에서의 군사작전과 대륙간 탄도 미사일(ICBM) 발사를 포함한 북하의 불안정하고 위협적인 행동을 규탄하고 북한의 자금 조달 능력을 제한하기 위한 우리의 공동 노력에 대해 논의 했다고 백악관이 밝혔다.

Russia requests security assistance from North Korea, including military uniforms and artillery shells
(11-10-2022)   by: Janne Pak(White House & State Department & Pentagon Correspondent) @Q&A with a State Department Spokesperson Ned Price and Janne Pak at the State Department briefing on November 10, 2022. Recently, Russia has requested security assistance from North Korea. Russia invaded Ukraine by force and consumed a large amount of shells, ammunition, and missiles to fight the war. Of course, the war caused a lot of casualties. There are reports of North Korea providing military combat uniforms or military equipment to Russia, but it is disguised to hide its direct supply. Russia's supply of fabrics to North Korea and North Korea's manufacturing and exporting of military uniforms and combat uniforms for the Russian military is evidence that Russia will increase its military and send more soldiers into battle. Of course, even if these actions by North Korea and Russia violate UN Security Council sanctions, Russia has no interest in North Korea sanctions. 최근 러시아는 북한에 안보 지원을 요구했다. 러시아는 우크라이나를 무력으로 침공해서 전쟁을 치르느라 엄청난 포탄과 탄약, 미사일등을 소비했다. 물론 전쟁으로 인해 수많은 인명피해도 발생했다. 북한이 러시아에 군 전투복을 지원하고 또는 군사적 장비를 지원한다는 것을 알고 있지만 다만 직접 공급을 숨기기 위해 위장 하고 있다는 것이다. 러시아가 북한에 원단을...
