The gathering of the 15th Supreme People’s Assembly (SPA) follows a five-yearly gathering of the ruling party last month which elevated leader Kim Jong-un’s powerful younger sister Kim Yo-jong to a top position.
On Sunday 687 deputies were “elected” to the SPA, with all North Koreans over 17 given the choice of approving or rejecting the sole candidate put forward by the ruling party.
