\n SEOUL
\nNorth Korean leader Kim Jong Un warned again that the North could preemptively use its nuclear weapons if threatened, as he praised his top army officials for a massive military parade in the capital, Pyongyang, this week.
\nKim expressed \u201cfirm will\u201d to continue developing his nuclear-armed military so that it could \u201cpreemptively and thoroughly contain and frustrate all dangerous attempts and threatening moves, including ever-escalating nuclear threats from hostile forces, if necessary,\u201d the North\u2019s official Korean Central News Agency said Saturday.
\nKCNA said Kim called his military officials to praise their work during Monday\u2019s parade, where the North showcased the biggest weapons in its nuclear arsenal, including intercontinental ballistic missiles that could potentially reach the U.S. homeland. The North also rolled out a variety of shorter-range solid-fuel missiles designed to be fired from land vehicles or submarines, which pose a growing threat to South Korea and Japan. KCNA didn\u2019t say when Kim\u2019s meeting with military brass took place. The parade marking the 90th anniversary of North Korea\u2019s army came as Kim revives nuclear brinkmanship aimed at forcing the United States to accept the idea of his country as a nuclear power and remove crippling economic sanctions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
