A spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry of the DPRK gave the following answer to a question raised by KCNA on May 3 as regards the fact that the U.S. is hyping a story about the unfounded “cyber threat” from the DPRK:
Recently, the U.S. government organs, reptile media organs and plot-breeding organizations are trying to spread incorrect understanding of the DPRK to the international community, talking about the non-existent “cyber threat” from the DPRK.
One common point in their unilateral assertion is that all cyber-related frauds in different parts of the world are related to us and that the U.S. boasting of the world’s best cyber technical power is the world's greatest “victim”.
It is quite unreasonable for the U.S., which resorts to indiscriminate cyber attacks on other countries with the global IT infrastructure under its control, to describe itself as the “victim”.
The building up of public opinion about someone’s “cyber threat” is an extension of the U.S. hostile policy toward the DPRK being repeated by its successive regimes. This is nothing but an absurd slander to tarnish the image of our country by spreading false information in pursuit of political purposes.
It is our consistent policy stand to protect cyber space, the common wealth of mankind, from all sorts of malicious acts and thoroughly reject any sinister attempt to use the cyber issue as a political tool for violating sovereignty and interfering in internal affairs of others.
The DPRK will never tolerate the hostile forces’ attempt at confrontation getting more undisguised in various domains including cyber space, but actively take all necessary measures for defending the interests of the state and protecting the rights and interests of its citizens.
