Kim vows to build ‘invincible’ military to tackle US

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un reviewed powerful missiles developed to launch nuclear strikes on the U.S. mainland, as he vowed to build an invincible military to cope with what he called persistent U.S. hostility, state media reported Tuesday.

In an apparent continued effort to drive a wedge between Washington and Seoul, Kim also used his speech at a rare exhibition of weapons systems Monday to stress that his military might isn’t targeted at South Korea and that there shouldn’t be another war pitting Korean people against each other.

The U.S. has frequently signaled it’s not hostile to our state, but there is no action-based evidence to make us believe that they are not hostile, Kim said Monday, according to the official Korean Central News Agency.

The U.S. is continuing to create tensions in the region with its wrong judgments and actions. Calling the United States a source of instability on the Korean Peninsula, Kim said his country’s most important objective is possessing an invincible military capability that no one can dare challenge.
