North Korea intends to create the "most powerful" strategic nuclear forces in the world to protect the sovereignty of the North Korean people and state. This was stated by the head of the DPRK, Kim Jong-un.
The North Korean leader and his daughter held a meeting with the military, scientists and workers of enterprises that contributed to the creation of the new intercontinental ballistic missile "Hwasong-17". According to KCNA, a photo session was also held, before which Kim Jong-un made a speech dedicated to the creation of strategic nuclear forces. According to him, the DPRK will strive to build the most powerful and "unprecedented" nuclear forces.

It is noted that recently North Korean scientists have made a qualitative leap in the creation of new ICBMs with nuclear warheads.
Meanwhile, according to experts, South Korea may become the next country to become the owner of nuclear weapons. Robert Kelly, a columnist for the American publication 19FortyFive, believes that Seoul is the closest to creating its own nuclear bomb in response to the development of new ICBMs in the DPRK capable of reaching anywhere in the United States. According to Kelly, South Korea can no longer rely on the United States as the guarantor of its sovereignty, so it will create its own deterrence tools.
