The spokesperson for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea gave the following answer to the question raised by KCNA on June 23 as regards the U.S. military strike against Iran’s nuclear facilities:
The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea strongly denounces the attack on Iran by the U.S., which severely violated the UN Charter with respect for sovereignty and non-interference in internal affairs as its basic principle, and also the norms of other international laws, by violently trampling down the territorial integrity and security interests of a sovereign state.
Opposing the threat and exercise of force that undermine the territorial integrity and political independence of a country in international relations constitutes the purpose, principles and fundamental spirit of the UN Charter that reflects the unanimous will of the international community.
The present situation of the Middle East, which is shaking the very basis of international peace and security, is the inevitable product of Israel’s reckless valour as it advances its unilateral interests through ceaseless war moves and territorial expansion, and that of the Western-style free order which has so far tolerated and encouraged Israeli acts.
Acts of Israel and the U.S. are amplifying serious concerns as they have further aggravated the tension in the Middle East and brought serious negative consequences on the global security structure by use of physical strength under the pretext of so-called “peacekeeping” and “removal of threat”.
The righteous international community should raise the voice of unanimous censure and rejection against the U.S. and Israel’s confrontational acts.
