North Korea's new missile test raises eyebrows just before US election

Kim Jong-un watched as NK tested its brand-new solid-fuel missile yesterday; the Hwasong-19 flew for 86 mins reaching super-high altitudes (the defense ministry shared a rare video showing the mega-sized weapon flying between Japan and Russia)

The test happened just days before US elections and got quick push-back from nearby countries. Seoul put new rules on NK people and groups today; experts say the missile and its launch-car are too big which makes it hard to move in real-world use

The new-type ICBM proved before the world that the hegemonic position we have secured in the development and manufacture of nuclear delivery means

Kim Jong-un stated while watching the launch

Military know-how says the test could show links to Russian help. The US says about 8k NK soldiers are near Ukraineʼs border ready to join Moscowʼs fight and some think Russia might give NK missile tech back; but smart-people dont think Moscow will share its best stuff

China stays hands-off about its friends working together: “NK and Russia are two free countries; its their business how they work together“ said Lin Jian from Chinaʼs foreign office. Choe Son Hui NKʼs top diplomat met with Russiaʼs Sergei Lavrov today saying theyʼll back Moscow till it wins in Ukraine; UN meets about this missile thing on Nov 4
