It’s a rare public warning from Kim Yo Jong — and a sign she could be gaining more influence in her brother’s government.

According to a press release on the Korean Central News Agency, Kim said the Pacific “does not belong to the dominium of the US or Japan” and reaffirmed North Korea’s right to test weapons in the area.
