North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, often referred to as 'Rocket Man', has ramped up his rhetoric by instructing his military to expedite preparations for an inevitable war against the United States and to achieve overwhelming war readiness. He has also issued fresh threats of a nuclear attack on Seoul and ordered a build-up of North Korea's military arsenal for possible 'war' preparations, with the military now on Higher Alert. Furthermore, Kim Jong Un has stated that North Korea will not seek reconciliation or unification with South Korea, and he announced his readiness to destroy the capitals of the United States and South Korea if they opt for military confrontation. Kim Jong Un's comments come as armed conflict on the Korean Peninsula is becoming a reality due to US actions, and he has told military leaders to mobilize the most powerful means to destroy their enemies, including the US. North Korea's policy goals for the coming year include launching three military reconnaissance satellites and building drones to advance its military capabilities. These developments underscore the heightened tensions and the seriousness of the North Korean leader's New Year's resolution to enhance the country's nuclear weapons program.
