Posted on the 27 January 2022 by Geetikamalik

The last time North Korea tested this many weapons in a month was in 2019, after high profile negotiations between Kim Jong UN leaders and later – United States President Donald Trump collapsed.

North Korea fired “unknown projectiles” Thursday morning, Seoul said, the sixth weapon test this year when the nuclear armed country flexed its military muscles and ignored the offer of Washington talks.

The last time North Korea tested this many weapons in a month was in 2019, after high profile negotiations between Kim Jong UN leaders and later – United States President Donald Trump collapsed.

Since then, speaking with the US has been languishing, and the country is economically shaken from biting international sanctions and the Coronavirus blockade imposed on its own.

“North Korea fired an unknown projectile to the east sea,” said Seoul’s head, referring to the Japanese Sea.

Pyongyang fired two allegations of roaming missiles on Tuesday, which were not banned in the current UN sanctions in North Korea.

It also tested alleged ballistic missiles on January 14 and 17, and fired what he said was hypersonic missiles on 5 and 11 January.

String test remover sanctions attract global criticism, including a closed meeting of the UN Security Council meeting.

The United States also imposed new sanctions in response, pushing an angry reply from North Korea, which last week suggested that it could continue the nuclear weapons and remote weapons test.

Pyongyang has not tested the ballistic nuclear or nuclear intercontinental since 2017, and continues to observe the moratorium forced by themselves even after diplomacy with the United States jammed.

‘Offensive weapon’

The North’s Saber-Rattling was present at a complicated time in this region, with the only Ally Main Kim China would host the winter Olympics next month and South Korea prepared for the presidential election in March.

“The Kim regime is developing impressive offensive weapons diversity despite serious economic resources and economic challenges,” said Leif-Eric Easley, a professor at the University of Eherha Seoul.

“Certain North Korean tests aim to develop new capabilities, especially to avoid missile defenses,” he added.

“Other launches are intended to show the readiness and versatility of the missile power that North Korea has deployed.”

After a decade in power, Kim’s leader did not have a little to celebrate, with a battered economy which caused a lack of food at home, diplomacy with the United States jammed and bite their sanctions.

It might explain why North Korea has carried out five weapons tests in the last three weeks, analysts said earlier in a week – and dramatic demonstrations of nuclear army military skills offering a quick win in front of important domestic warnings.

The country prepares to mark the 80-year anniversary of Kim’s father, Kim Jong Il’s final leader, in February, and the 110th birthday of the country’s founder leader Kim Il Sung in April.

Maybe also wanted to do a test before the start of the Beijing winter Olympics next week, don’t let his anger is China’s main ally with a missile rain in his parade.
