North Korea Claims US Enabling Japanese Nuclear Ambitions via Submarine Program

North Korea's KCNA, citing a security analyst, alleges the US is assisting Japanese militarists in developing nuclear weapons under the guise of nuclear-powered submarines. This is a propaganda escalation in regional rhetoric, likely aimed at justifying DPRK's own nuclear program and pressuring Japan and the US. The claim is unverified and appears to be a deliberate narrative shift, as Japan has no stated nuclear weapons program.
