North Korea reposts the full text of a revised constitution on its state propaganda website after it was taken offline, confirming changes adopted by the Supreme People’s Assembly in March. The constitution text is published on the Naenara web portal, restoring its constitution section for the first time since the document was revised.
The revision is described as redefining aspects of North Korea’s territory and strengthening leader Kim Jong Un’s authority. Coverage also links the document’s earlier removal to policy shifts that North Korea positions as moving away from reconciliation and unification language with South Korea, following Kim’s declarations in late 2023 and subsequent instructions in early 2024.
While outlets largely agree on the timing (a March revision) and the online reposting, they vary in emphasis. Some focus more directly on the confirmed constitutional changes and their implications for Kim’s expanded powers, while others highlight the website’s earlier takedown and the political context of removing references to unification.
