North Korean leader Kim Jong‑un cast his vote during elections for a new term of the Supreme People's Assembly, with state media reporting turnout of 99.99 percent. Footage released by Korean Central News Agency shows Kim voting at a polling station in the Sunchon Area Youth Coal-mining Complex. Parliamentary elections in North Korea are usually held every five years, but this vote took place after a seven-year gap. The election also followed the recent ruling party congress, which outlined the country’s political and economic priorities.
