Ballistic missile
Following joint US-South Korean military drills that Pyongyang referred to as “rehearsals for an invasion,” the missile launch occurred. After two months, North Korea has not launched a ballistic missile till now.
With the demolition of a monument that stood for unification and several missile launches, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has been raising tensions with South Korea.
In addition, he has rejected any kind of communication or discussion with South Korea, saying that regional peace will only be achieved when North Korea reaches the status of a nuclear powerhouse. Leader of the South Korean government Yoon Suk Yeol thinks the Communist state will become more visible before the April elections.
