Her comments mark the first time a senior North Korean official has commented directly on what South Korean President Yun Suk-yeol has called a “bold” plan — first proposed in May and discussed again Wednesday at a press conference for the first 100 days in power. “It would be more favorable to his image to shut his mouth instead of talking nonsense as he had nothing better to say,” Kim Yo-yong said in a statement released by the state-run KCNA news agency, calling Yun “really simple and still childish. to think he could trade economic cooperation for the North’s honor and nuclear weapons. Kim Yo Jong retaliated against Yoon Suk Yeol after he said his country was willing to provide financial aid in exchange for nuclear disarmament. .AP “Nobody trades their fate for corncake,” he added. South Korea’s unification minister, who handles relations with the North, called Kim’s comments “very disrespectful and indecent.” While Yoon said he is willing to provide incremental economic aid to North Korea if it ends its nuclear weapons development and begins denuclearization, he also pushed for an increase in South Korea’s military deterrence against North Korea. South Korea has resumed long-suspended joint exercises with the United States, including major field exercises set to begin next week. On Wednesday, a State Department spokesman said Washington supported Yun’s policies, but Kim said the joint exercises showed the allies’ talk of diplomacy was disingenuous. “We’re making it clear that we’re not going to sit face-to-face with him,” she said of Yoon. Kim Yo Jong has become an outspoken critic of South Korea in recent years, with some experts seeing her as playing the “bad cop” on her brother’s more subdued statements. Friday’s statement is her harshest personal attack on Yun to date, but this month she also released a diatribe that blamed the South for an outbreak of COVID-19 in the North and threatened “deadly retaliation” if there were further incidents. Experts say the South’s latest economic plan is similar to proposals by past leaders, including those during summits between then-US President Donald Trump and Kim Jong Un.

North Korea test-fired two cruise missiles at sea on Wednesday, the first such test in two months. It came after the country declared victory over COVID-19 last week.
