North Korea’s amended constitution has demarcated new territorial boundaries on the peninsula, effectively formalizing the irreversible separation from the South, according to a document detailing the purported charter, as seen by NK News.
The document — which represents the most recent version approved by North Korea’s rubber-stamp parliament in March — reveals the regime has removed from its constitution all mentions of inter-Korean unification and the achievements of the former Kim leaders. It also appears to have added a new provision outlining the delegation of nuclear command authority to an official other than leader Kim Jong Un.
