SEOUL, 04 August 2022, (TON): North Korea warned it will never tolerate the United States’ criticism of the isolated country’s nuclear program, calling Washington the kingpin of nuclear proliferation and saying it would not allow any encroachment of its sovereign rights.
North Korea has conducted missile tests at an unprecedented pace this year and international experts believe it is readying its seventh nuclear test, the first since 2017.
The North’s permanent mission to the United Nations issued the statement on Wednesday as diplomats gathered in New York for a month-long UN conference to review the Treaty on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons.
US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said “during the meeting the North continues to expand its unlawful nuclear program” and “is preparing to conduct its seventh nuclear test.”
