The DPRK’s Permanent Representative to the UN has called the possession of nuclear weapons a “self-defense right” and believes that no one has the right or reason to accuse the DPRK.
North Korea refuses to make excuses for having nuclear weapons, calling it the “right of self-defense.” This was announced by the Permanent Representative of the DPRK to the UN.
North Korea’s UN envoy told a conference on nuclear non-proliferation in New York that the DPRK has withdrawn from the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) as part of the legal procedure under the treaty’s relevant article .
“No one has the right or reason to accuse the DPRK, a nuclear-weapon country and a non-state party (NPT), of exercising the right to self-defense,” a North Korean official said in a statement.
Earlier, the North Korean leader issued an official statement on the occasion of the 69th anniversary of the end of the Korean War (1950-1953). In it, he expressed his readiness to start a war with the use of strategic nuclear weapons in the event of an attempt to attack the DPRK.
North Korea has accused the US and South Korea of instigating a conflict that could lead to a “Second Korean War”.
Recall that the leader of the DPRK, Kim Jong-un, congratulated the Russian leader Vladimir Putin on Russia Day and expressed full support for his actions.
