[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] The Ministry of Unification stated that it is keeping an open mind and observing various possibilities regarding North Korea's failure to announce whether it will hold the Supreme People's Assembly on the 7th, including the postponement of the meeting and the possibility of holding consecutive sessions followed by a comprehensive report.

Lee Jong-joo, spokesperson for the Ministry of Unification, explained at a regular briefing that "there have been cases where the Supreme People's Assembly was held with a delay, and in other meetings, when sessions lasted more than a day, the announcement of the meeting's occurrence was reported all at once on the final day."

North Korea decided at the plenary meeting of the Standing Committee of the Supreme People's Assembly in December last year to hold the 6th session of the 14th Supreme People's Assembly on February 6 this year, but there has been no report from state media so far, leading to various speculations such as postponement and comprehensive reporting.
