North Korea expected to strengthen role of rubber-stamp parliament, Seoul says

The appointment of one of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s closest aides to two key legislative positions is expected to strengthen the role of the country’s rubber-stamp parliament, Seoul’s Unification Ministry said Wednesday.

At a press briefing, the ministry also said that the decision to rename the DPRK’s constitution and establish a new police force at this week’s session of the Supreme People’s Assembly (SPA) appears to be aimed at projecting an image as a “normal” state.
