North Korea warns of ‘disaster’ if G7 tries to strip its nuclear weapons

North Korea's Kim Yo-jong, sister of leader Kim Jong-un, has warned of "disaster" if the G7 attempts to strip the country of its nuclear weapons. State media reported on Thursday that Kim condemned the G7's call for denuclearization as a violation of North Korea's constitution and an infringement of its sovereignty. She stated that denuclearization is a "finalized agenda" that cannot be realized, and that nuclear possession is a core, irreversible interest for North Korea. Kim further asserted that crossing this "line of no retreat" would be "the worst option of inviting disaster."
