Continued provocation until last month...Average of 5 to 6 times per month
North Korea-Russia Military Alliance...North Korea also jumped into the Russia-U.S. war
North Korea expected to strengthen its defense capability next year by continuing the two-state theory.
This year, North Korea defined the two Koreas as two hostile countries, blocking connections, building barriers, and sending ground troops to Russia for the first time.
At the same time, the provocation did not stop under the pretext of strengthening defense capabilities, and this trend is expected to continue next year.

This year, North Korea used the hostile two-state theory as the basis for its policy toward the South.
To this end, the unification policy was abolished and inter-Korean measures were announced.

The threat has led to reality.
Since the beginning of the new year, more than 200 coastal artillery have been fired into the West Sea buffer zone, and landmines have been buried on the Gyeongui Line road.
Eventually, a barrier was built around the military demarcation line, and the frontline monitoring post and GP were restored, and the military agreement was destroyed.
The provocation continued every month until last month, just before we fell into martial law and impeachment.
It fired short-range ballistic missiles, cruise missiles, super-large multiple rockets, hypersonic intermediate-range ballistic missiles, and a new intercontinental ballistic missile of the Hwasong-19 model, and even flew garbage bags, continuing five to six provocations a month on average.
[Chosun Central Television (last month) : (Chairman Kim Jong-un) has made it clear again and again that he will never change the route of strengthening nuclear force under any circumstances.]
In June, they formed a military alliance with Russia to revive the Cold War agreement and sent more than 10,000 special forces to enter the Russia-Ukraine war.
North Korea's stance is expected to continue next year.
Even if the second Trump administration, which emphasizes dialogue, is established, it is expected to strengthen its defense capabilities through military cooperation with Russia and secure the initiative.
