He offered respects to grandfather Kim Il-sung and late father Kim Jong-il.
Mr Kim praised the “military first” doctrine and said the time his nation could be threatened was “forever over”.

The launch was condemned by the international community, amid concern that it was a covert test of long-range missile technology.
