A small note:

The official policy of the DPRK is only to use nuclear weapons if attacked (and in fact a little more restrictive: Only if attacked with nuclear weapons).

This makes sense given there is little for them to gain in an offensive use of nukes and the resulting counter attack would mean the complete annihilation of Korea.

The main strategy is deterrence at a cheaper cost (They had a conventional military that could inflict enough damaged to make it unappealing to invade them, but nukes are cheaper in the long term than fully or partially mobilized troops and weapons, as well as the associated industrial complexes).

On the topic of the GSEs though, its hard to say whether or not anything will be done in the next month. So far many bill this admin has tried to push through congress have failed. On the flip side, reforming the GSEs doesn't for the most part require congressional approval (ending the NWS, recapitalization, etc.)
