As a candidate, Yoon promised to bring Seoul closer to the United States and implement a foreign policy that takes a harder line against the North. Current president Moon Jae-in attempted to expand dialogue and cooperation with Pyongyang to deter Kim from threatening his state, a policy that did not succeed in his goals of ending the 70-year-old Korean War formally or getting Kim to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cnbc.com\/2017\/11\/01\/south-koreas-moon-says-cannot-recognise-north-korea-as-nuclear-state.html\">commit<\/a> to ending nuclear weapons development.<\/p>\n<p>Kim\u2019s insults directed at Suh are a response to the defense minister assuring South Korean citizens that their military is prepared for any attack from the North in response to Pyongyang\u2019s declaration last month that it had successfully tested a new intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCurrently, our military possesses large numbers and various types of missiles that have greatly improved in terms of ranges, accuracy and power, and it has capabilities to accurately and swiftly strike any targets in North Korea,\u201d Suh said at an event \u201cmarking the reinforcement of the Army Missile Strategic Command,\u201d according to South Korean news service Yonhap.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<div id=\"attachment_20510831\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"https:\/\/media.breitbart.com\/media\/2022\/04\/GettyImages-1217825900.jpg\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>File\/People read a newspaper at a news stand in Pyongyang on June 6, 2020.
