Press Statement of Director General for Int'l Organizations of DPRK Foreign Ministry

Pyongyang, March 22 (KCNA) -- Jo Chol Su, director general of the Department of International Organizations of the Foreign Ministry of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, issued the following press statement on Wednesday:

At an open session of the UN Security Council on March 20, the U.S. representative to the UN again groundlessly pulled up the DPRK over its exercise of the right to self-defence and spouted a litany of rhetoric about the outdated CVID and the "human rights situation".

The U.S. confabs against the DPRK at the UN arena only reveal before the world the failure of the American-style diplomacy which has got spoiled for its anachronistic and unrealistic nature.

Thomas Greenfield may think she is "struggling" for the U.S. interests, but should know that she is only making shameful acts of badly defaming the image of the U.S. administration.

The pressure on the DPRK to dismantle its nukes precisely means a declaration of war.

Any force should keep in mind that if it tries to apply CVID to the DPRK, it will be dealt with resolutely in accordance with the DPRK's law on nuclear force policy.

The international community still recalls with anger and pain the inhuman crimes committed by the U.S., which invaded Iraq 20 years ago to massacre hundreds of thousands of civilians and plunged the Middle East into the vortex of war.

How many more countries will have to suffer from invasion and how many more people will have to shed their blood to stop the U.S. imperialists' high-handed and arbitrary practices.

A few days ago, I warned that Thomas Greenfield would surely deplore her position as a stooge and servant of the U.S., over the fact that she dared to find fault with the "human rights situation" in the DPRK.

If she continues to speak and act maliciously, not being prudent as now, she will be the first to be judged by justice as a stooge of the "empire of evils". -0-
