Ministry of National Defense (North Korea) → Ministry of Defence (North Korea) – This is the official name provided by North Korea. Migs005 (talk) 03:17, 15 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Comment: No evidence of this alleged official name has been provided. I suspect that the actual official name is in the Korean language rather than in English. The one source that I see cited in the article uses "Defense", not "Defence". — BarrelProof (talk) 09:43, 15 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

@BarrelProof: The new name is used in this NK state media report on the 14 January 2021 military parade. Link to article --Migs005 (talk) 14:52, 15 January 2021 (UTC)Reply

Thank you. OK. I do not object. — BarrelProof (talk) 17:32, 15 January 2021 (UTC)Reply
