North Korean leader Kim Jong-un officially designated South Korea the 'most hostile state' during a speech at the first session of the newly elected 15th Supreme People's Assembly, warning of 'merciless' consequences if provoked by Seoul and reaffirming the permanence of North Korea's nuclear arsenal. The remarks build on similar declarations made a month earlier at the Workers' Party Congress.
North Korea held an enlarged meeting of its Cabinet's Workers' Party of Korea committee on April 1, 2026, to discuss implementing decisions from the previous month's first session of the 15th Supreme People's Assembly, state media reported. Presided over by Premier Pak Thae-song, participants focused on executing key tasks outlined by leader Kim Jong-un and approved expanded inspections to enforce the new national five-year plan unveiled at the recent party congress.

North Korea is set to hold the first session of its new Supreme People's Assembly on Sunday, amid attention on whether it will codify its hostile policy toward South Korea in the constitution. The session follows the selection of new deputies after the Ninth Congress of the Workers' Party of Korea last month.
