Press Statement of DPRK Permanent

Representative to UN

Pyongyang, January 12 (KCNA) -- Kim Song, permanent
representative of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea
(DPRK) to the United Nations, Thursday issued the following
press statement:
The UNSC meeting on the Ukrainian issue held on January 10
serves as an occasion of showing once again that the U.S. is just
an incurable cancer-like entity undermining the root of
international peace and security contrary to the purpose and
principle of the UN Charter.
The U.S. act for illegalizing the legitimate relations between
independent sovereign states is an illegal act quite contrary to
the purpose of the UN Charter on developing friendly relations
between states on the basis of the respect of the principle of
equality and the right to self-determination of the people and a
total denial of international law.
The Ukrainian situation was created by the confrontation policy
of the U.S. to infringe upon the reasonable and just security
interests of Russia and push forward the advance of NATO to
the East step by step from A to Z. Therefore, Washington can
never evade its responsibility.
The U.S. pulled up the DPRK which has nothing to do with the
discussion of agenda items. This is the vivid reflection of their

plight in the tight corner and only reveals its insufficient might
and means in the strategic confrontation with Russia.
The DPRK does not feel the need to comment on every U.S.
groundless accusation.
The U.S. had better know who its rival is before pulling up others
and ponder over the consequences to be entailed by it, rather
than the immediate gain. -0-
