Corona's first suspected patient found in North Korea, Kim Jong imposed emergency in South adjoining city Headline TadkaNews LIVE

Tyrant Kim Jong Un issued a stern warning about North Korea's economy amid reports that he claimed to have given his sister some power, including responsibility for relations with the US.  Kim pointed out that the country is facing unexpected and unavoidable challenges in various aspects.

North Korea's economy is in the worst state in the last two decades due to flooding and the corona virus.  South Korean ministers reported that the country's spies have reported that Kim has given some of his powers to his younger sister Kim Yo Jong on responsibility for relations with Seoul and the US.

 However Kim Yo Jong's public role in diplomatic affairs has increased, such as replying to a letter from US President Donald Trump at the beginning of the year.  It elaborated on formal power-sharing arrangements.

 After receiving detailed information from the spy agency, Intelligence Committee member Ha Tae-kyung said that the decision does not seem to suggest that Kim is adopting a collective leadership system like the Communist Party of China.  He said that Kim Jong-un has all the powers under the current leadership of North Korea.

 

North Korea also announced the first National Congress plan of the ruling Workers' Party of Korea.  The important meeting in January could be a way to encourage influential officials like Kim's sister.  Kim Jong Un's statement on the economy was new in a series of complaints about the pace of key policy goals.

 North Korea's leaders will swear in a new five-year economic development plan at the upcoming party congress.  Kim is facing difficulties on various fronts and an alleged health scare earlier this year raised a wide range of questions about succession.

 His nuclear discussions with Trump are stalled for relief without any restrictions.  Also this week, the US and South Korea have ceased joint military exercises.  During a campaign in Pennsylvania, Donald Trump reiterated his claim that if he had not been here, the US, North Korea would have been fighting the war.

 North Korea's economy is under pressure due to the decision to close borders due to the Corona virus in January.  This year North Korea may face a major challenge in the economy since 1997.  This year's torrential rains have destroyed agriculture, which has increased the food crisis in the country.

The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported that the lockdown was announced on Friday afternoon.  The suspected case is of a man who fled to South Korea years ago and illegally crossed the border into North Korea last week.  KCNA reported that investigations suggest the person may have been infected with the corona virus.
