N.Korea expresses ‘strong regret’ over UN rebuke of ICBM launch: KCNA

SEOUL, 21 November 2022, (TON): A statement in state-run outlet KCNA said “North Korea’s foreign minister expressed strong regret over UN chief Antonio Guterres’ condemnation of the country’s intercontinental ballistic missile launch.”

The North fired an intercontinental ballistic missile Friday in one of its most powerful tests yet, prompting Guterres to urge Pyongyang to halt any further “provocative actions.”

Foreign Minister Choe Son Hui responded by expressing my strong regret over the fact that the UN secretary-general has taken a very deplorable attitude.

The UN chief’s statement, Choe said, “was oblivious of the purpose and principles of the UN Charter and its proper mission which is to maintain impartiality, objectivity and equity in all matters.”
