North Korea warned UN Security Council against discussing country’s human rights issues.
North Korea warned the United Nations Security Council on Wednesday [December 4, 2019] that it would consider any discussion of the country’s human rights situation a ‘serious provocation’ that would increase tension on the Korean Peninsula.
North Korean Ambassador, Kim Song warned in a letter that any council meeting on its human rights situation would be ‘another serious provocation’ resulting from the United States’ ‘hostile policy’ and that the country would “respond strongly to the last.”
“The United States and those countries on board shall bear full responsibility,” the ambassador added.
Earlier on Wednesday [December 4, 2019], a number of European countries again condemned North Korea’s ‘provocative’ ballistic missile launches since May 2019, underscoring that they violate Security Council resolutions.
The members of the Security Council stressed that Pyongyang should stop its ballistic missile launches immediately.
