Kim Jong Un Expands Nuclear Arsenal, Signals Conditional Talks with U.S. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has vowed to expand his country’s nuclear arsenal and operational range, declaring that the United States must accept North Korea as a permanent nuclear power. Speaking at the Ninth Congress of the Workers’ Party in Pyongyang, Kim said Washington and Pyongyang could “get along” but only if the U.S. drops what he called its hostile policy and recognizes North Korea’s nuclear status. His remarks come as U.S. President Donald Trump prepares for a visit to China, raising speculation about renewed diplomacy. However, Kim ruled out reconciliation with South Korea, labeling Seoul the North’s “most hostile entity.” Despite heavy sanctions, North Korea continues to test missiles. According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, Pyongyang may already possess around 50 nuclear warheads. Kim insists denuclearization is off the table, making any future talks far more complex.
