Sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un calls South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol’s offer foolish

The sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un says her country will never accept South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol’s “foolish” offer of economic benefits in exchange for denuclearization steps, accusing Seoul of recycling past proposals Pyongyang already rejected.

Kim Yo Jong’s newspaper column came after she threatened “deadly” retaliation against the South over a recent COVID-19 outbreak in the North, which it dubiously claims was caused by leaflets and other “filth” dropped from balloons launched by southern activists. Inter-Korean ties have worsened amid a stalemate in larger nuclear negotiations between North Korea and the U.S. that derailed in early 2019 because of disagreements over a relaxation of crippling U.S.-led sanctions on the North in exchange for disarmament steps.
