Press Statement by Minister of Foreign Affairs of DPRK

 

The Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) issued the following a press statement on April 11:

At the emergency special session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) held on April 7, a "resolution" calling for the suspension of the rights of membership of the Russian Federation in the United Nations Human Rights Council has been railroaded into adoption.

The adoption of this "resolution" led by the United States and the West is an unreasonable act seeking biased and unilateral political purpose, which is devoid of any scientific grounds or legal validity.

What the U.S. is after with its ulterior intention is crystal clear.

It is to isolate the independent countries and forces challenging them at the international arena so as to maintain its illegal and inhumane US-led hegemonic order.

We have already flatly opposed the adoption of the anti-Russia "resolution" as it constitutes the height of politicization of human rights, selectivity and double-standard.

In fact, the U.S., the world's biggest violator of human rights, has long been disqualified to talk about human rights.

The U.S. return to the UN Human Rights Council has incurred only dire consequences of bringing the UN human rights arena into disrepute and causing troubles across the world, rather than promoting human rights on an international scale.

The adoption of the anti-Russia "resolution" this time corroborated once again that the U.S. has no interest whatsoever in the improvement of genuine human rights, the ease of tension, or in the ensuring of peace, but rather is bent on pursuing its own interests by fomenting confrontation and distrust, and inciting one country against another.

Peace and stability would never settle in the world unless the U.S. stops its high-handedness and arbitrariness of being engrossed in misusing the international organizations.

The international organizations that are obliged to promote equality, unity and cooperation between sovereign states and to realize international justice and peace should never be misused for dishonest political purposes of certain forces.

The United Nations and international organizations should not be abused again as a means of the U.S. to put political pressure on the countries of its dislike and to threaten and blackmail them at its will.
