Quick Glance: North Korea Leader's Sister Raises Concerns Over US Military Drills
  • Kim Yo Jong, the influential sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, emphasized the need to build a strong military power to protect the country's sovereignty and regional peace.

  • She criticized the US military exercises in the region, particularly the collaboration with South Korea, which she claimed are dangerously destabilizing the regional security environment.
