North Korea sentenced President Donald Trump to death for insulting Kim Jong-un, with tensions escalating on the Korean Peninsula in 2017 amidst warnings to Australia about being within range of North Korean missiles. The country showcases itself as ready for conflict, holding the world to ransom with its nuclear arsenal, and advocating for a change from within through information and knowledge dissemination instead of military intervention.
Insights
