Statement of Director General of Department of Press and Information of DPRK Foreign Ministry

Jo Yong Sam, Director General of the Department of Press and Information of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK), released the following statement on August 6:

As reported, Pelosi, the House Speaker of the U.S., who had come under a volley of due criticism from China for destroying regional peace and stability by visiting Taiwan, stirred up an atmosphere of confrontation with the DPRK during her trip to south Korea.

She, with the south Korean authorities, talked about “strong and expanded deterrent” for coping with “threat from north Korea” and made her appearance even in the joint security area of Panmunjom, utterly betraying the vision of the hostile policy of the current U.S. administration towards the DPRK.

Lurking behind it is the sinister scheme of the U.S. to further escalate the already-tense situation on the Korean peninsula and in the region by pushing the current ruling south Korean conservative forces into confrontation with the fellow countrymen in the north, and to use it as an excuse for justifying its anachronistic hostile policy toward the DPRK and reckless arms build-up.

The U.S. is just adding fuel to the fire.

Pelosi, the worst destroyer of international peace and stability, had incited the atmosphere of confrontation with Russia during her trip to Ukraine in April, and incurred the wrath of the Chinese people for her recent junket to Taiwan.

It would be a fatal mistake for her to think that she can go off scot-free on the Korean peninsula.

The U.S. will have to pay dearly for all the sources of trouble spawned by her wherever she went.
