SEOUL, 16 July 2022, (TON): North Korea’s foreign ministry said “Ukraine has no right to raise sovereignty issues after joining the United States’ unjust, illegal actions that breached Pyongyang’s sovereignty.”

Ukraine severed relations with North Korea after the move, calling it an attempt to undermine its sovereignty and territorial integrity.
But the isolated country’s foreign ministry defended the decision, saying Ukraine had already aided US-led actions including sanctions over the North’s weapons programs.
