Abstract

The article focuses on North Korea's recent ballistic missile launches, reporting that the country fired about 10 ballistic missiles amid ongoing US–South Korea military drills from March 9 to March 19. The launches followed North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s oversight of a cruise missile test from a new warship and coincide with Pyongyang’s demand for Washington to recognize it as a nuclear state. Japan’s Coast Guard confirmed a suspected missile splashdown outside its exclusive economic zone, prompting Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi to order safety measures. The article also notes diplomatic context, including South Korean Prime Minister Kim Min-seok’s remarks on US President Donald Trump’s hopes for a meeting with Kim Jong Un during an upcoming China visit.
