North Korean leader Kim Jong Un emphasized the need to implement economic policies responsibly, while chairing a meeting of the ruling Labor Party’s political office, according to the state news agency KCNA.
The meeting came during a difficult year for North Korea as the coronavirus pandemic put even more pressure on the economy, which is already struggling to implement international sanctions aimed at ending North Korea’s nuclear program.
The political bureau has harshly criticized financial guidance bodies for failing to provide scientific guidance for economic action before the party’s conference next year, according to the KCNA, according to the APE-MPE.
“The political bureau pointed out the need for an operational and administrative control of the implementation of the party’s economic policies, based on science, but also the demonstration of greater dedication and responsibility,” the state news agency reported.
In August, Kim said the ruling party would hold a congress in January to decide on a new five-year plan, and the Politburo meeting identified serious delays in the improvement of North Korea’s economy.
