“There is no longer a Nuclear Threat from North Korea.”
It was the latest in a series of vitriolic statements from Pyongyang aimed at both Washington and Seoul and came a day after the North implicitly threatened to disrupt November’s election if the US did not stay out of inter-Korean affairs.
In the onslaught, the North’s foreign minister Ri Son Gwon accused Washington of hypocrisy and seeking regime change, saying that the hopes of 2018 had “faded away into a dark nightmare”. “Nothing is more hypocritical than an empty promise,” Ri said in his statement, carried by the official KCNA news agency.
He stopped just short of criticising Trump by name, but referred to comments that “the master of the White House” had “reeled off time and time again as a boast”. “North Koreans know they will not be getting what they want either from South Korea or the US,” she told AFP. “Diplomacy no longer seems to be in the cards.”
