North Korea announced that it has built its first nuclear-powered submarine. Examining the massive submarine, Kim Jong Un stated that the defense policy is based on the "strongest offensive capability."
HE CONDUCTED INSPECTIONS AT THE CONSTRUCTION FACILITY
In footage released by state media, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un was seen inspecting the submarine, which is said to carry guided missiles, at a closed construction facility. This indicates that the submarine has not yet been launched into the sea.
HIS NOT WEARING A LEATHER JACKET DREW ATTENTION
Another detail that caught attention in the images reflected in the media was Kim's weight gain. Kim Jong Un, whose significant weight gain has not gone unnoticed, was seen wearing a different coat over his suit instead of his usual long leather jacket.
