North Korean leader Kim Jong-un presided over an enlarged meeting of the ruling Workers’ Party of Korea political bureau in Pyongyang, where he called for extraordinary responsibility and high prudence in carrying out major state projects. State media said he did not mention U.S. President Donald Trump’s recent overtures. The meeting reviewed progress on the 2026 policy tasks adopted at the party’s ninth congress earlier this year.

North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has called for "extraordinary responsibility and high prudence" in carrying out major state projects during a key party meeting, state media reported Wednesday.
He made the remarks while presiding over the fourth enlarged meeting of the ruling Workers' Party of Korea's (WPK) political bureau the previous day.
But the North's leader made no mention of U.S. President Donald Trump's recent overtures to him. Trump has hoped to reengage with Kim this year.
