In his first major public speech, the leader made it clear that the military will continue to have a dominant role in running the country, just as it did under his father and former leader Kim Jong Il, who died in December.
DPRK leader Kim Jong-un said, "It breaks my heart to see our people, who have lived on the same land, suffering from the agony of division for about 70 years. We will strive responsibly and patiently to accomplish the historic mission of unification."
This was Kim’s first public speech since becoming first secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea, chairman of the WPK Central Military Commission and first chairman of the National Defence Commission.
Although the DPRK endured an embarrassing failure on Friday when its much-anticipated launch of a long-range rocket broke into pieces shortly after liftoff, Sunday’s address was seen as an expression of confidence by the young leader and a signal designed to show that he is firmly in control.
