国际英语新闻:DPRK says U.S., Japan are to blame first for non-proliferation issue
PYONGYANG, Dec. 14 (Xinhua) -- The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) said Thursday that the plan by the UN Security Council (UNSC) to discuss the country's non-proliferation issue is not justifiable, as the United States and Japan are the first to blame.
A spokesperson of the DPRK Foreign Ministry issued a press statement on Thursday saying that Japan, the rotating chair of the UNSC in December, is instigated by the United States to convene a ministerial-level meeting of the UNSC on the "non-proliferation" issue of the DPRK.
But the meeting is none other than a desperate measure plotted by the U.S. who are terrified by the incredible might of our Republic which has successfully achieved great historic significance by becoming a nuclear state, the spokesperson said.
The spokesman also said that if the "non-proliferation" issue is to be discussed, "the first countries to be brought before the court of justice are the U.S. who is the kingpin of vertical and horizontal proliferation."
The spokesman also accused Japan of keeping a "more than necessary stockpile of plutonium" and is seeking "every opportunity to produce nuclear weapons."
"The DPRK, as a responsible nuclear power and a peace-loving state, will sincerely fulfill its non-proliferation obligation assumed before the international society and put in every effort to achieve the noble cause of safeguarding world peace and stability," the spokesman added.
