North Korea resumed testing missiles Sunday as the world’s attention focused on the invasion of Ukraine by Russia, an ally of the totalitarian nation.

Experts said Washington’s preoccupation with halting Russia’s invasion might be empowering the North to accelerate its pressure campaign.

South Koreans watch a news report about North Korea’s latest ballistic missile launch in Seoul, South Korea on Feb. 27, 2022.“North Korea is not going to do anyone the favor of staying quiet while the world deals with Russia’s aggression against Ukraine,” said Leif-Eric Easley, a professor at Ewha University in Seoul.

“Pyongyang has an ambitious schedule of military modernization. The Kim regime’s strength and legitimacy have become tied to testing ever better missiles.” Officials in South Korea planned an emergency national security council meeting to discuss the North’s renewed aggression.KCNA VIA KNS/AFP via Getty Images
