SEOUL (Bloomberg): North Korea appeared to stage a military parade as part of a grand party congress that laid out the scale of the challenge US President-elect Joe Biden faces to rein in Kim Jong-un’s nuclear programme.

There were signs that North Korea held a parade late Sunday (Jan 10) evening, the South Korean Joint Chiefs of Staff said Monday, in what would be the second such event in since October.
