Will Kim Jong-un boast of new weapons, or will he conduct another nuclear missile test soon after a long time? The Korean Labor Party has an anniversary on October 10, and this is the date the world is looking forward to.
There are fears that the North Korean dictator has prepared something big for an important “holiday”. The party was founded in 1945 by his grandfather Kim Ir-sen, who still holds the title of eternal president.
According to Jim Hoar, an expert in the DPRK, Kim will want to demonstrate strength in front of his own people and abroad. “Round anniversaries are taken very seriously in the country and are important. This year’s military parade should be exceptional. In the past, the dictatorship has always boasted of new weapons. Or at least their models, we do not know,” Hoare told the British portal. express.co.uk.
However, given the unpredictability of the North Korean regime, it is not possible to predict in advance with greater certainty exactly what will happen. The anniversary of the Korean Labor Party is the third most important day of the year after the birthdays of Kim Irsen and Kim Jong-il.
This corresponds to the scope of preparations for the giant military parade, which will take place in Pyongyang. Soldiers collapse during rehearsals and allegedly die of malnutrition. At least one has fled North Korea in desperation since August this year. For almost two months, no one saw the dictator’s younger sister, Kim Yochong, in public. That is why there is talk that Kim intends to strengthen her position in the leadership of the state with the show.
Parts of the DPRK were hit by a tropical cyclone during the summer, destroying much of the crop. According to some observers, the country is on the brink of famine. An estimated three and a half million North Koreans died of starvation in the second half of the 1990s.
Kim Jong-un declared a state of emergency. Watch the TV Nova report:
