NORTH Korean leader Kim Jong-un reaffirmed the status of the US as the country’s biggest enemy on Saturday, as the Eighth Congress of the ruling Workers’ Party came to an end.

During nine hours of remarks in Pyongyang, he told delegates that he did not expect a different approach from the incoming administration of US President-elect Joe Biden.

He admitted failures in reaching certain economic targets, but highlighted efforts towards the “revolutionary measures” needed to develop in the fields of electricity, coal, transport, and information and communications.
