North Korea revises constitution, calls South Korea separate state & drops reunification

ملخص مفصل

North Korea has released the full text of its revised constitution, formally defining South Korea as a separate neighbouring country and removing references to reunification, in a further step towards institutionalising leader Kim Jong-un's policy of treating the two Koreas as hostile states.The revised document, published on Wednesday on the North Korean propaganda website Naenara, also expands Kim's authority over the country's nuclear forces, including allowing him to delegate the power to use nuclear weapons to the state nuclear command organisation.According to the Korea JoongAng Daily, the constitution was amended at the first session of the 15th Supreme People's Assembly on March 23.
