The government of incoming President Yoon Suk-yeol will bolster capabilities to deter North Korea's nuclear weapons and missile threats, the transition team said Tuesday, after North Korean leader Kim Jong-un vowed to further strengthen his nuclear arsenal at a military parade.
The transition team said in a statement the incoming government will strengthen the alliance with the United States and swiftly complete the homegrown "three-axis" system designed to counter North Korea's nuclear and missile threats.
The parade was held in Pyongyang, Monday, to mark the 90th founding anniversary of the Korean People's Revolutionary Army. (Yonhap)
