Kim Jong-un has vowed to make North Korea
"the world's strongest nuclear power."
The country's state-run media reports that
Kim told officials at a munitions conference
in Pyongyang that the successful development
of weapons, including the recently launched
Hwasong-15 ICBM,... marks a historic victory
for the North Korean people, but one that
came at a great cost.
Kim reportedly added that he hopes North Korea
can take the country's nuclear power to a
new level with its latest launch.
This is the first time the North has reported
on the conference.
Experts say it's likely intended to show off
the North's nuclear accomplishments.
