Kim Yo Jong, a member of North Korea’s politburo, also described South Korean President Yoon Suk-yeol as “really simple and still childish.” “No one trades their fate for corn cakes,” he added in a statement released by the state-run KCNA news agency. South Korea’s Unification Minister, Kwon Young-se, called her comments “disrespectful and indecent.” It is the first time a senior North Korean official has commented directly on what Mr Yun called a “bold” plan. He has said he is willing to provide incremental financial aid to North Korea if it ends its nuclear weapons development and begins denuclearization. But Ms Kim was scathing in her denunciation of the idea, saying of Mr Yoon: “It would be more favorable to his image to shut him up, rather than talking nonsense, as he had nothing better to say.” North Korea fired two cruise missiles into the sea off its west coast on Wednesday. Last week, he threatened retaliation after the outbreak of COVID-19 in the north – which he claims was caused by southern activists dropping leaflets and other items from balloons.

We must deal with it harshly. We have already considered various countermeasures, but our countermeasure must be a deadly retaliation.” The South’s offer of financial aid was first proposed in May – and Mr Yun spoke about it again on Wednesday as he marked 100 days in office. He has also pushed to increase his country’s military deterrence against North Korea, and Seoul has resumed long-suspended joint exercises with the United States, including major field exercises set to begin next week.
