Standing beside North Korea's largest missiles, leader Kim Jong Un said his country's weapons development is necessary in the face of hostile policies.
State media carried comments from Kim, saying it was necessary to increase the North's military for self defense in the face of hostile policies from the U.S and South Korea.
Kim made his comments in a speech at the Defense Development Exhibition on Monday, according to a report by state news agency KCNA.
Photos in the ruling party newspaper showed Kim standing next to the country's largest intercontinental ballistic missiles, that have been unveiled, but not yet test fired.
