BREITBART April 22, 2022: North Korea’s communist dictator Kim Jong-un sent “warm greetings” to outgoing South Korean President Moon Jae-in cementing a mutual “deep trust” in each other, Pyongyang’s state propaganda arms revealed on Friday.

The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) claimed that Moon initially sent a private letter to Kim, to which the dictator was happy to respond. Moon, of the far-left Democratic Party, made negotiations with the Kim regime a priority of his tenure and visited North Korea, unprecedented for a South Korean president, on multiple occasions. Moon also repeatedly called for an end to the 72-year-old Korean War but was unable to secure a peace treaty.

Moon’s presidential term ends on May 10, when conservative President-elect Yoon Suk-yeol is set to be inaugurated.

The letter exchange, and its presentation in KCNA, continue what has become a tradition in Pyongyang of Kim Jong-un making friendly gestures and taking the lead on diplomacy while sister Kim Yo-jong threatens and berates the free world. In early April, less than a month before the “expression of deep trust,” Kim Yo-jong issued public comments threatening to use nuclear weapons to attack South Korea.

“In case [South Korea] opts for military confrontation with us, our nuclear combat force will have to inevitably carry out its duty,” Kim proclaimed in the pages of state media. “A dreadful attack will be launched and the [South Korean] army will have to face a miserable fate little short of total destruction and ruin.”
