We comprehensively reject the statement of the UN Security Council, which encroaches on the right of a sovereign state to self-defense,
the document says.The ministry recalled that the United States, having conducted Ulchi-Freedom Guardian command-staff exercises with South Korea, “abandoned Pyongyang’s initiative to ease tensions” in the region.
With the United States it is impossible to resolve issues with polite words, but actions should be shown,
added to the MFA.In addition, the agency said that the North Korean army will continue to conduct test launches of missiles in the Pacific Ocean "in order to develop rocket technologies and increase the country's combat capability."
Recall, on Tuesday evening, the UN Security Council, following closed consultations, adopted a statement condemning the missile launch in North Korea and demanded Pyongyang to stop implementing missile and nuclear programs.
