North Korea has criticized South Korea’s first military parade in 40 years, calling it a “meaningless clown show.” Kim Jong-un’s sister, Kim Yo-jong, noted that instead of making an impression, the parade looked more like a demonstration of useless weapons. According to her, Seoul has disgraced itself and would do better to hide its weapons, since excessive demonstration makes them less threatening.

She expressed the opinion that “an empty cart rumbles louder,” hinting that Seoul’s attempt to demonstrate power did not bring the desired effect. Kim Yo-jong also ridiculed the moment when South Korean authorities saluted the American Rockwell B-1 Lancer bomber during its flight over Seoul. This, in her opinion, only confirms South Korea’s dependence on the United States.
