Kim<\/strong><\/a>&#8216;s successor, according to Lee Seong Kweun, one of the politicians in attendance.<\/p>\n<p>NIS said its assessment was based on &#8220;credible intelligence&#8221; collected by the agency.<\/p>\n<p>Asked about potential protests from Mr Kim&#8217;s sister Kim Yo Jong, who has been long regarded as <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/news.sky.com\/topic\/north-korea-5907\/1\" target=\"_blank\">North Korea<\/a><\/strong>&#8216;s number two figure, the NIS director responded that she has no substantial powers, Mr Lee told a briefing.<\/p>\n<p>It is the agency&#8217;s strongest assessment yet on the rising political status of the teenager who it believes could extend her family&#8217;s rule into a fourth generation.<\/p>\n<p>In early 2024, the NIS described the child as Mr Kim&#8217;s likely heir, and in February this year, the agency said it believed she was close to being designated as the nation&#8217;s future leader.<\/p>\n<p>Some observers disagree with the assessments, arguing North Korea&#8217;s extremely male-dominated society won&#8217;t likely embrace a woman leader.<\/p>\n<div class=\"sdc-article-widget sdc-article-image\"
