North Korean leader Kim Jong Un acknowledged in a speech earlier this year that there was a “food problem” in the country. This is the second time Shakim has issued such a warning in recent months.
Most of Kim’s speech, which came after a five-day meeting of the ruling party, focused on the need to increase agricultural production in the country.
The president also claimed that “during the plague, the country has further cut itself off from the world, and has not seen even a single local case of infection with the virus.
In addition, the leader praised military development during the decade he was in power. Despite this, he did not mention the US or South Korean rivalry.
Although Sack has not clarified exactly what level of food insecurity it is, the World Food Program says there was a severe food shortage in the country in 2021, with a drop of hundreds of thousands in the country’s rice stocks.
