Biden embraces N. Korea’s ‘pecking order’

If a very fatigued-looking Kim Jong-un – the dictatorial president of North Korea – was attempting to conduct a meeting with his senior leaders and suddenly opted to turn the meeting over to his sister, Kim Yo-jong, what reaction could be expected from those present?

Yo-jong’s only claim to fame is her sibling relationship to Kim. But we know no one present would object to the dictator’s on-the-spot decision to have his sister conduct the meeting, issuing whatever decisions she deemed necessary.
