North Korea's Satellite Launch: A New Era of Power and Strategy

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un celebrates the successful launch of the country's first-ever military spy satellite, claiming it marks a "new era of a space power." The launch, in violation of UN sanctions, has escalated tensions on the Korean peninsula, with Seoul partially suspending and Pyongyang completely suspending the 2018 joint military agreement. South Korea, Japan, and China are set to hold trilateral talks, discussing regional and international situations, amid concerns over North Korea's military development and its relationship with Russia. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken has urged Beijing to call for restraint.
