North Korea warns US
North Korea warns US not to mislead people. The country says that their interest in nuclear disarmament is not due to the US sanctions and military pressure. Rather, it may be thought that the upcoming summit will be disrupted between the two countries. News Reuters and the BBC
In recent years, North Korea has been hit by several sanctions imposed by the United Nations and United States. These sanctions were imposed in order to drag North Korean nuclear and missile programs.
An official from the North Korean Foreign Ministry said the US has been provoking repeatedly that the sanctions would continue until North Korea abandoned its nuclear weapons.
A North Korean official told the news agency KCNA: "North Korea's convincingly agreeing to the Korea Peninsula's release of nuclear weapons, Washington has repeatedly banned the use of sanctions and other measures. The people are being misled by this.
The country's foreign ministry spokesman told KCNA that the US repeatedly provoked North Korea by deploying strategic equipment in South Korea and dragging human rights issues against North Korea. This behavior of the United States can ruin the many hard-earned negotiations of the two countries and take it to the previous state. Even this would not help in the disarmament of nuclear power, the official said.
