  "account": "The powerful sister of North Korea's leader, Kim Yo Jong, has warned the United States that Pyongyang will mount a stronger response to Washington's hostile policy, according to the state news agency KCNA. Kim Yo Jong, speaking in the present reality of escalating US hostile actions, stated that new records for Pyongyang's reflective counteraction will be created. This comment follows Pyongyang's recent test-firing of strategic cruise missiles, in response to the FBI's allegations that North Korea was behind the theft of $6 billion from cryptocurrency platform Binance. Kim Yo Jong dismissed the Binance allegations as a \"grave political provocation\" and called it an extension of Washington's hostile policy. The FBI had claimed that a North Korea-affiliated hacking group, TraderTraitor, was behind the hack, but Kim Yo Jong rejected this claim. Earlier this week, North Korea test-fired strategic cruise missiles fitted with a new cluster-munition warhead, further demonstrating its weapons capabilities. Kim Yo Jong also signaled that Pyongyang saw little point in resuming diplomacy, stating that the choice for peace includes dialogue, but it is not equated with national interests for them.",
