North Korea’s dictatorial ruler Kim Jong Un joined his soldiers in operational training of the newly built battle tank. During this time he also drove a tank and declared it to be the most powerful tank in the world.
The country’s government media gave this information on Thursday. The Korean Central News Agency said Kim expressed great satisfaction with driving the tank.
Let us tell you that North Korea’s battle tank training is being seen as a response to the military exercises held every year between South Korea and America.
This military exercise between the two countries is to end late Thursday evening. North Korea believes that this exercise by South Korea and America is part of preparations to attack it.
KCNA said in a report that the purpose of the training conducted by North Korea on Wednesday was to observe the combat capabilities of the personnel operating the tanks.
According to the report, a new type of main battle tank was included in it. According to Kim Jong Un, this is the most powerful tank in the world.
Earlier, North Korean leader Kim Jong Un had called for strengthening combat capabilities against America and South Korea.
North Korea had threatened action in response to the US-South Korea joint exercises. Kim, during a visit to a Western operational training military base, said he had told the military to continuously intensify actual combat exercises with the aim of rapidly improving its combat capabilities for combat readiness.
Kim had said that extreme readiness is required to control the constant threat of enemies with overwhelming force. Two days before Kim’s statement, North Korea on Tuesday described the joint military exercise of the US and South Korea as a conspiracy to attack it and said that it will not shy away from retaliating.
