SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — The powerful sister of North Korea’s leader says her country would stage more provocative displays of its military might in response to a new U.S.-South Korean agreement to intensify nuclear deterrence to counter the North’s nuclear threat, which she insists shows their “extreme” hostility toward Pyongyang. Kim Yo Jong also lobbed personal insults toward U.S. President Joe Biden. After a summit with South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol on Wednesday, Biden had warned that any North Korean nuclear attack on the United States or its allies would “result in the end of whatever regime” took such action.
