The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the DPRK announced that the United States, South Korea and Japan had crossed a “dangerous line.” The statement of the Foreign Ministry of North Korea leads Reuters.
The country’s Foreign Ministry noted that it sees a threat from US actions in the region. “The Korean peninsula is turning into the world’s largest tinderbox and military training ground due to the military expansion carried out by the United States and its allies,” North Korean diplomats said in a statement.
At the same time, TASS notes that the statement was not published on the official website of the North Korean Foreign Ministry.
Earlier, Konstantin Asmolov, a leading researcher at the Center for Korean Studies at the Institute of the Far East of the Russian Academy of Sciences, told Lente.ru that Pyongyang’s threats towards Washington are associated with the beginning of a “seasonal aggravation” in relations between the DPRK and the United States.
