On October 10, the Reuters news agency quoted a senior US government official calling the North Korean parade of its unprecedented large intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) as “disappointing”, calling the two countries negotiating to achieve the complete denuclearization of the peninsula.
“It is disappointing to see that North Korea continues to prioritize its nuclear and ballistic missile program over a better future for the North Korean people,” the official said.
Denuclearization talks between Pyongyang and Washington have stalled since the US-Trieu summit in Hanoi ended last year.
On the same day, during the parade to celebrate the 75th anniversary of the establishment of the Korean Workers’ Party, Pyongyang exhibited the large ICBM.

North Korean rockets are carried in a large device, rolling slowly through Kim Nhat Thanh Square in the presence of Kim Jong Un’s leader and many officials and citizens.
According to the AFP news agency, some analysts describe it as the world’s largest liquid-fueled missile if deployed. It is called Pukguksong-4 and can be launched from a submarine.

“If we don’t have the strength, all we have to do is wipe up the tears and the flowing blood,” Kim said.
The women in the crowd wiped away their tears as Mr. Kim spoke.
