North Korea says Japan's prime minister offered to meet with leader Kim Jong Un soon
abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory/north-korea-japans-prime-minister-proposed-summit-leader-108454403
Quick Glance: Japanese PM Offers to Meet Kim Jong Un, Conditions Pose Challenges
- North Korea states that Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida proposed a meeting with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un 'as soon as possible,' contingent on Tokyo's stance towards North Korea's weapons program and past abductions of Japanese nationals.
- Kishida emphasizes the importance of a meeting with Kim to address the abduction issue, but North Korea's preconditions make a Kim-Kishida summit unlikely.
- Kim Yo Jong, Kim Jong Un's sister, highlights the need for Japan to make political decisions aligned with its overall interests to enhance bilateral relations and regional peace.
- Experts suggest that a potential meeting could benefit both North Korea and Japan, with North Korea aiming to strengthen its position and Japan considering potential economic assistance if ties normalize.

Quick Glance: North Korea's Kim Supervises 'Super-Large' Rocket Launcher Drills
- North Korean leader Kim Jong Un oversaw live-fire drills involving 'newly-equipped super-large' multiple rocket launchers.
- The drills aimed to test the 'real war capabilities' of the 600-millimeter multiple rocket launchers and included simulating an aerial explosion of a shell at a predetermined altitude above the target.
- Kim emphasized that the rocket launchers would be the 'core central striking means' in war preparations and that the army should possess destructive offensive means to block and suppress the possibility of war.
- North Korea is banned from testing ballistic missiles due to long-running sanctions, and the latest tests were seen as the regime's attempt to demonstrate strength, signal costs on the Korean Peninsula for security cooperation, and warn Washington against increased pressure.
