Episode Details

North Korea just launched another ballistic missile, flying over 700 kilometers and landing in the sea between Korea and Japan — just days before major U.S.-South Korea drills begin. This is their second test in under a week, and experts say it’s a deliberate provocation meant to pressure Washington and Seoul, while showcasing their growing arsenal. South Korea and Japan are calling it an act of aggression, while the U.S. insists its drills are purely defensive. With North Korea deepening ties with Russia and China, this latest move underscores a tense geopolitical chess game aimed at forcing concessions — especially easing sanctions — as Pyongyang continues to escalate its weapons program since 2019.
