News stories from North Korea's official media, KCNA, Pyongyang's state Korean Central News, are now available on Twitter.
The Twitter profile shows a list of its English-language stories against a background of the North's red-and-blue national flag.
A feed under the name "kcna—dprk" which are acronyms of Pyongyang's state Korean Central News Agency and the country's official name, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, provides links to the Agency's news stories.
It is uncertain
whether or not the Pyongyang-based news agency is operating the site, however, if it is, it does not mean ordinary citizens can use Twitter.
As of today, the site's last update was June 12, the update was an article about North Korea's No. 2 leader Kim Yong Nam sending a congratulatory message to Azerbaijan's president. The news agency normally publishes dozens of reports in English daily.
