Original title: DPRK Foreign Ministry: the convening of the DPRK related meeting by the Security Council at the request of the United States is a practice of double standards
On October 3, Zhao Zhezhu, director of the international organizations Bureau of the DPRK Foreign Ministry, made a statement. During the conversation, Zhao Zhezhu criticized the UN Security Council's private meeting on the DPRK issue at the request of the United States as engaging in "clear double standards", because the Security Council remained silent on the large-scale joint military exercises and weapon tests of the United States and its allies, and made irresponsible remarks about the normal self-defense measures of the DPRK.
The KCNA released the full text of Zhao Zhezhu's remarks on October 3. Zhao Zhezhu said, "at the meeting, the United States and its subordinate countries, Britain and France, slandered China's' mars-8 'hypersonic missile test firing in violation of the' resolution 'of the United Nations, and insisted that our missile test firing posed a' threat 'to international peace and the security of neighboring countries." Zhao Zhezhu said that North Korea's weapon test firing was entirely in its territory, territorial sea It has never posed any threat or harm to the security of neighboring countries.
"The UN Security Council is silent about the large-scale joint military exercises and frequent attack weapon tests of the United States and its subordinate forces, and makes irresponsible remarks about China's normal and planned self-defense measures. This is a denial of the life of UN activities - fairness, objectivity and balance, and a clear double standard." Zhao Zhezhu criticized.
On October 1, the UN Security Council held an emergency closed door meeting on North Korea's latest missile test, but the meeting failed to reach an agreement on the joint statement. According to Agence France Presse, the Security Council meeting on Friday was held at the joint request of the United States, France and Britain. The closed door meeting lasted more than an hour.
On September 28, the Korean Academy of defense Sciences test fired the "mars-8" hypersonic missile, and successfully test fired a newly developed air defense missile on September 30, aiming to confirm the comprehensive combat performance of the missile and the operational practicability of the launcher, radar and integrated combat command vehicle.
