North Korea accused NATO of preparing for war, citing the alliance's €27 billion plan to modernize and expand a 10,000-km fuel network across Europe, according to an open-source intelligence monitor.
The accusation, reported by an open-source intelligence monitor on Saturday morning, centers on NATO's Fuel Supply Chain Capability Programme Plan, valued at €27 billion. Pyongyang claims the infrastructure expansion signals a more aggressive military posture by the alliance. No independent verification or official NATO response was immediately available. The Zioneer's archive includes background on North Korea's nuclear build-up and its ongoing military modernization, though the current accusation is a separate diplomatic statement.
