North Korea Fires Missile During Blinken's Visit to South Korea – Provocation Amid Political Turmoil

North Korea has conducted a ballistic missile test coinciding with U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken's visit to South Korea for high-level diplomatic talks. The missile, believed to be an intermediate-range ballistic missile (IRBM), traveled over 1,100 kilometers before landing in the sea. South Korea's military condemned the act as a "clear provocation," while the timing raises questions about Pyongyang's intent to influence the summit discussions. As tensions rise, South Korea, the U.S., and Japan are coordinating their response. Is this a strategic warning from North Korea, or a sign of further escalation to come? #NorthKorea #USSouthKoreaSummit #AntonyBlinken #BallisticMissile #Geopolitics #EastAsiaTensions #KimJongUn #SouthKoreaNews #USForeignPolicy #GlobalSecurity Also Read India Successfully Tests Nuclear-Capable K-4 Missile From INS Arighaat, Adds Teeth To Naval Deterrence :: https://www.oneindia.com/india/india-successfully-tests-nuclear-capable-k-4-missile-from-ins-arighaat-adds-teeth-to-naval-deterren-4000539.html?ref=DMDesc Russia Didn't Strike Ukraine With ICBM.
