The authority stated: “North Korea launched a ballistic missile towards the east.” Earlier, the Deputy Foreign Minister of Democratic Korea, Kim Son Gyong, stated that his country will not abandon its nuclear capabilities “under any circumstances,” as he put it.
The Deputy Foreign Minister of Democratic Korea, in his country’s speech before the United Nations General Assembly, said that “imposing what is called nuclear disarmament on the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is tantamount to demanding the abandonment of our sovereignty and our right to exist. This is a violation of our constitution. We will never give up our nuclear capabilities, and we will not deviate from this stance under any circumstances.”
The permanent mission of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea to the United Nations Office and International Organizations in Vienna earlier issued a statement that addressed the nuclear weapons program of Democratic Korea, during a recent session held by the International Atomic Energy Agency.
The Pyongyang mission condemned the United States for raising the issue of the Democratic Korea’s nuclear weapons program at the latest session of the International Atomic Energy Agency.
