North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has been re-elected as the general secretary of the ruling Workers’ Party at a rare congress, state media said Monday.

The decision was made Sunday “in accordance with the unshakable will and unanimous desire of all the delegates” at the ninth party congress, the Korean Central News Agency said.

The congress singled out Kim’s efforts to keep unnamed foes at bay by “radically” improving its “nuclear forces“. (AFP)
