Pyongyang has accused the United States and its allies of “provocative military activities” near North Korea.
Kim Yo Jong, the brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and an official of the Central Committee of North Korea’s ruling Workers’ Party, is not talking to the United States amid tensions over the satellite launch Pyongyang. This was reported by KCNA.
“The sovereignty of an independent state can never be on the agenda of negotiations, so the DPRK will never sit face to face with the United States for this purpose,” he said in a statement.
This is Kim Yo Jong’s comment on the statement of US Ambassador to the UN Linda Thomas-Greenfield that Washington continues to call on Pyongyang for dialogue without preconditions, and that North Korea can choose the time and topic of negotiations.
A senior North Korean official has accused the US and its allies of “provocative military activities” near North Korea and “disrupting peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula” and said his country will continue to strengthen its military capabilities. .
“The DPRK will continue to strive to develop everything that falls within its sovereign rights, and will continue to enjoy the sovereign rights enjoyed by all UN member states,” he stressed.
Let’s recall that last week the DPRK announced the successful launch of its first reconnaissance satellite into space. Pyongyang said the spy satellite had photographed key target regions, including the South Korean capital Seoul and cities where US military bases are located.
The US and its allies condemned the launch as a violation of UN Security Council resolutions banning North Korea from any use of ballistic missile technology.
