Kim Yo Jong called the U.S. push for North Korean denuclearization an 'anachronistic dream' and said the North will steadily expand its nuclear arsenal in the face of U.S.-led threats, according to GDELT. This stance aligns with North Korea's attempt to present itself as a responsible nuclear power. The country enshrined its nuclear status in its constitution in 2023, according to Hindustan Times.
