Early reports indicate North Korea showcased its new intercontinental rocket, the 'Mars 20', in a military parade. The event, known for flaunting North Korea's latest military advancements, took place amidst escalating tension and changing dynamics in international relations. Observers across the globe and in Japan are keenly analyzing the event and its potential implications.

Given its geographical proximity and past issues with North Korea, Japan has always been concerned about Pyongyang's military activities. The showcasing of 'Mars 20' could heighten existing anxieties among the public in Japan. The Japanese government, while maintaining its stance for peaceful international relations, may also have to reassess its defense strategy and diplomatic efforts concerning North Korea.

Similar to Japan, many in the US and EU actively follow North Korea's military developments. In comparison, the response from these countries might be more imposing due to their stronger influence and involvement in international politics. They might respond through a unified display of international pressure or even sanctions against North Korea.
