North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has pledged to keep building a more modern navy fleet to enhance the country's maritime power.
He made the comments at the launching ceremony for a warship that had been repaired after it capsized during its first botched launching ceremony three weeks ago.
In a lavish ceremony Thursday, Kim boarded the warship and told troops that nothing could block the country's push to bolster its naval combat power in the face of U.S.-led hostilities.
Outside observers doubt whether the ship's engine, weapons systems and other electronic equipment can function normally, as parts of the warship were submerged for about two weeks.
North Korea's failed launch on May 21st sparked fury from Kim, who has vowed to build a stronger navy to cope with what he calls escalating U.S.-led threats against his country.
