Kim Jong-un, the late North Korean Supreme Leader, died Friday of causes not yet known. The Security Council is currently debating whether to suggest that Kim Jong-un’s sister, Kim Yo-jong become the new Supreme Leader of North Korea. The delegates are fiercely divided between Kim Yo-jong becoming Supreme Leader and holding a new election as if another Supreme Leader would have been elected.
Tunisia, South Africa, and Vietnam are heavily in favor of electing a new leader, because they believe Kim Yo-jong will initiate violence and take advantage of the nuclear warfare North Korea has access to, as Kim Yo-jong has threatened to move North Korean troops to demilitarized zones.
“The last thing Tunisia wants is more Korean conflict,” said the representative of Tunisia.
On the other side, the United Kingdom, United States, and Russia could not be more opposed to the bill. In the bill drafted by the U.K., France, Russia, U.S., Estonia, Belgium, St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Germany, and Indonesia, Kim Yo-jong would “allow for the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea to stabilize itself under the new leadership of Kim Yo-jong without outside influence to denounce foreign intervention.”
The Security Council is moving as fast as possible, as the next topics they will be debating are extremely important. Soon, we will have more information about the cause of Kim Jong-un’s death and who the next Supreme Leader will be.
