This Tuesday, September 26, North Korea’s representative to the UN declared that the Korean peninsula was “on the brink of nuclear war.” In his words, the “reckless actions” of the United States were partly to blame for the situation. The “reckless” actions and “continued hysteria of the United States and its allies in terms of nuclear confrontation […] are driving the Korean peninsula towards a military situation on the brink of nuclear war,” the ambassador declared. from Pyongyang to the United Nations, Kim Song.

Attacking Washington’s policy in Northeast Asia, the representative of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, the official name of North Korea, denounced a “dangerous current situation [which] is the work of the United States United, which seek to perfect their hegemonic ambition by all means by overestimating their power.

For the representative of Kim Jong-un’s communist regime, “responsibility also lies with the leading forces of the ‘Republic of Korea’ [South Korea, Editor’s note] who seek to impose the scourge of a nuclear war against [their ] nation.”

Seoul would be “obsessed with voluntary submission to the United States and fratricidal confrontation,” the North Korean diplomat concluded.
