WORLD, May 17 (YPA) – North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and his daughter i Ju Ae have inspected the country’s first military reconnaissance satellite, which is ready to be loaded on a rocket, state media reported Wednesday
Kim “approved the future action plan of the preparatory committee,” saying that “to successfully launch the military reconnaissance satellite is an urgent requirement of the prevailing security environment of the country,” according to KCNA.
Launching the satellite will also be “a clear stride forward in developing the space military, science and technology of the country,” he added.
The leader stressed that “the more desperately the US imperialists and South Korean puppet villains escalate their confrontational moves against the DPRK (North Korea’s official name), the more fairly, squarely and offensively the DPRK will exercise its sovereignty and just right to self-defense to deter them and defend the country.”
Kim’s daughter appearance at important events has become commonplace for his abundance, amid speculation that she may be preparing to become his successor. State media described the girl as her “favorite child” or “dear” to the heart of her father, the North Korean leader.
