Two hostile states theory

The two hostile states theory (적대적 두 국가론) is the official policy of North Korea and the Workers' Party of Korea (WPK) in regards to its relations with South Korea since 2023. The policy, taken by North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, reflects the abandonment of the country's previous policy of promoting Korean reunification on the basis of being constituents of the same Korean nation, instead declaring that the Republic of Korea (ROK) is an "enemy" state of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) with which there can be no discussions. Since the announcement of the policy, North Korea has renamed and removed symbols related to reunification throughout the country.
