In North Korea, there are reports of severe food shortages and political purges, even as North Korea’s state media rebuff any diplomatic overtures from America or South Korea
in response to the coronavirus pandemic. What little information still trickles out is hardly encouraging: there are reports of severe food shortages and political purges, even as North Korea’s state media rebuff any diplomatic overtures from America or the South.
For the first few years of Mr Kim’s tenure, such predictions seemed sound. In a speech on the centennial of his grandfather’s birth, in 2012, the freshly-anointed dictator laid out his plan to build an “economically powerful state” and “improve the people’s livelihood”.
Mr Kim’s attempts to resolve that contradiction in 2018 by courting Mr Trump and Moon Jae-in, South Korea’s president, ended in failure. Mr Kim miscalculated during his final meeting with Mr Trump in Hanoi in February 2019. He demanded comprehensive sanctions relief from America in return for dismantling Yongbyon, an important but ageing nuclear facility. Mr Trump rebuffed him, causing the summit to collapse.
