Pyongyang, July 11 (SocialNews.XYZ) North Korea condemned "the United States and its vassal forces" for the inter-camp confrontation intention displayed at the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) Summit, a foreign ministry spokesperson said Saturday.
The spokesperson made the remarks in a press statement reported by the official Korean Central News Agency, saying the trans-Atlantic bloc is exacerbating the security environment of Europe and creating instability in the Asia-Pacific.
The US-led NATO allies and their partners incited confrontation throughout the NATO Summit, held earlier this week in Ankara, Turkiye, the statement said, calling it clear proof that the organisation is "a war and confrontation body that goes against international peace and security in all parts of the world while pursuing exclusive geopolitical interests."
The statement noted that the US, Japan and South Korea's call for "denuclearisation", which “completely lost its timeliness and practical feasibility, can never affect the position of the DPRK (Democratic People's Republic of Korea (North Korea), and the reality faced by the forces who have denied it for decades is a sufficient answer to this.”
"NATO is systematically exacerbating the security environment of Europe through the implementation of its reckless eastward advance policy, to maintain illegal justification for its existence, which should have been extinct with the end of the Cold War, and creating instability in the Asia-Pacific region by shifting its responsibility onto other countries. Its provocative moves can never be overlooked," said the statement, Xinhua news agency reported.
“The reckless acts of the confrontation forces posing a destructive threat to the world security mechanical structure give a realistic justification to the renewal and expansion of the physical deterrent to confront them,” it added.
North Korea will defend its national sovereignty and security interests and regional peace and stability by building up at an accelerated pace the strength capable of deterring the enemy countries' attempts at collective confrontation and their military threats, it said.
