UN secretary-general advised to be committed to his responsibility

It is the shabby and double-dealing behaviour of the UN Secretary-General that he does not say a word when the sovereignty of the DPRK, a full member of the UN, is severely infringed, yet he never misses opportunity to subserviently raise his voice of "regret" whenever the US and its vassal forces pick a quarrel with the DPRK’s self-defensive measures, a spokesman for the DPRK Ministry of Foreign Affairs told KCNA on June 11.

The statement came after the spokesman for the UN Secretary-General on June 10 made such nonsensical remarks that he conveys "regret" over the DPRK’s measures to completely cut off inter-Korean communication channels and that communication channels are needed to avoid misunderstandings and miscalculations.

I am not sure whether it is an expression of his ignorance, but Guterres, as the UN Secretary-General, must have expressed his viewpoint, cognizant at least of the fact that the current situation unfolding between the north and south has arisen not because they do not have communication lines or contact channels, the spokesman said.

It is only the UN Secretary-General himself who knows whether he closes his eyes and pretends ignorance of the articles of inter-Korean agreement, he said. “Anyway, his latest remark of ‘regret’ cannot be overlooked.”

No matter how eagerly he wants to side with the US and its followers, he should have at least a shred of a sense of duty as the UN Secretary-General, he said.

Such an expression of inappropriate and biased views by the UN Secretary-General helps not only deepen the international understanding that the UN has been reduced to a political tool of and a stooge for the privileged forces, but also fuel mistrust of the international community in the sacred UN organization and especially, the Secretary-General himself, he noted.
