  • North Korean leader Kim Jong Un replaced several senior officials after a "grave incident" in the country's efforts to defend itself against the coronavirus, state media reported Wednesday. Officials had "caused a grave incident that poses a huge crisis to the safety of the nation and its people", Kim told a politburo meeting, according to the Korean Central News Agency, without giving details. Pyongyang closed its borders in January last year to defend itself against the pandemic that first emerged in neighbouring China and has gone on to sweep the world. The move left the nuclear-armed, sanctioned country more isolated than ever: trade with Beijing -- its economic lifeline -- slowed to a trickle while all international aid workers have left. This month Pyongyang admitted it was tackling a food crisis, sounding the alarm in a nation with a moribund agricultural sector that has long struggled to feed itself. The North has not publicly confirmed any cases of the disease, neither in state media nor in the test statistics it has disclosed to the World Health Organization. Leader Kim himself tearfully thanked his people for not having had any cases at a military parade in October. New members of the presidium of the politburo -- the highest decision-making body of the ruling Workers' Party -- and the politburo were named at the meeting on Tuesday, KCNA reported, adding that "government officials were transferred and appointed". cdl/slb/je
