NORTH Korea’s Kim Jong Un would face the end of his regime if he used his nuclear weapons against the South, its president said Tuesday, as Seoul staged a parade showcasing its military prowess.

Fighter jets flew over downtown Seoul and tanks rolled through the streets, as South Korea displayed weaponry including its largest ballistic missile, the Hyunmoo-5, which is capable of destroying underground bunkers, for the first time.

The event, which marks Armed Forces Day in the South, comes as relations between the two Koreas are at one of their lowest points in decades, with Pyongyang declaring the South its “principal enemy” and moving nuclear-capable weapons to the border.

“If North Korea attempts to use nuclear weapons, it will face the resolute and overwhelming response of our military and the US and Republic of Korea alliance,” Seoul’s President Yoon Suk Yeol said.

“That day will be the end of the North Korean regime,” Yoon said, addressing thousands of service members gathered at Seoul Air Base for the event.

SHIGERU Ishiba, leader of Japan’s ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), was officially elected the country’s prime minister on Tuesday after winning a majority of votes in both houses of parliament.

The Japanese Diet convened an extraordinary session in the afternoon to choose the new prime minister. As the ruling coalition led by the LDP controls both chambers, 67-year-old Ishiba received 291 of 461 votes in the House of Representatives and 143 of 242 votes in the House of Councillors.

After the special Diet session, the 67-year-old veteran politician unveiled his

cabinet lineup consisting of 13 first-time appointees, two reappointments and four

returning ministers with previous cabinet experience. He will later be formally inaugurated in a ceremony at the Imperial Palace and hold a press conference in the evening to lay out his policy priorities.

In the new cabinet, former Defence Minister Takeshi Iwaya became minister of

foreign affairs, while former Defence Minister Gen Nakatani once again returned to

the post. Yoshimasa Hayashi, the top government spokesman under Kishida, will

retain the post of chief cabinet secretary.

Katsunobu Kato, one of Ishiba’s competitors in the LDP race, will take the position of finance minister, while Yoji Muto will serve as minister for economy, trade, and industry. Only two women were appointed to the cabinet: Toshiko Abe as minister of education, culture, sports, science, and technology, and Junko Mihara as minister for children’s policies, reducing the number of female ministers by three compared with the Kishida cabinet. — Xinhua
