Kim Jong Un is the current Supreme Leader of North Korea. He became the leader of the country following the death of his father, Kim Jong Il, in December 2011. Kim Jong Un is the third generation of the Kim family to rule North Korea, with his grandfather, Kim Il-sung, being the founding leader of the nation.

Under Kim Jong Un’s leadership, North Korea has continued its policy of military development, particularly in the areas of nuclear weapons and missile technology. He has also engaged in periodic diplomatic efforts, including summits with world leaders like U.S. President Donald Trump and South Korean President Moon Jae-in, although these efforts have not led to lasting changes in North Korea’s international relationships or its policies.

Kim Jong Un’s leadership is marked by strict control over the country’s political and economic systems, with a heavy emphasis on maintaining the regime’s power and stability. The country remains highly secretive, and its human rights record is frequently criticized by international organizations.
