North Korea has slammed the United States over a Pentagon report that labeled it a “persistent' threat because of weapons of mass destruction, saying it will strongly counter what it called U.S. plans for aggression

A TV screen shows an image of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un during a news program at the Seoul Railway Station in Seoul, South Korea, Thursday, Sept. 28, 2023. Kim called for an exponential increase in production of nuclear weapons and for his country to play a larger role in a coalition of nations confronting the United States in a “new Cold War,” state media said Thursday.

North Korea’s military will “counter the U.S. imperialist aggressor’s military strategy and provocations with the most overwhelming and sustained response strategy,” the statement said. South Korea’s Defense Ministry warned in a statement Wednesday that any attempt by North Korea to use nuclear weapons would result in the end of the Kim government. It said North Korea’s inclusion of the nuclear law in its constitution will further deepen its international isolation and the suffering of its people.

The U.S. and South Korea have been responding to North Korea’s advancing nuclear arsenal with expanded joint military exercises and temporary deployments of U.S. long-range bombers and a nuclear-armed submarine. North Korea calls such moves grave provocations that force it to further strengthen its nuclear program.

Foreign officials and experts believe North Korea hopes to obtain advanced Russian technologies to help it develop spy satellites, nuclear-propelled submarines and powerful long-range missiles in return for supplying Russia with conventional arms exhausted by its war with Ukraine.What to know about Elijah McClain’s death and the criminal trial of two officers
