Pyongyang,
August 31 (KCNA) -- Choe Son Hui, first vice-foreign minister of the DPRK, released the following
statement on Saturday: A series of awful
remarks provoking us is recently heard from the
upper echelons of the U.S. administration.
U.S. State Secretary Pompeo
again irritated us by
spouting such unreasonable words
on Aug. 27 that the U.S. "Recognized North Korea’s rogue behavior
could not be ignored." What he uttered to seriously insult us by even
using such phrase as "rogue behavior" is just improper language, for which
the U.S. Administration will surely
regret.
Pompeo
has gone so far in his language and it made the opening of the expected
DPRK-U.S. working-level negotiations more difficult. It, moreover, added to the Korean people's bad
blood toward Americans.
Our
expectations of dialogue with the U.S. are gradually disappearing and we are
being pushed to reexamine all the measures we have taken so far. We are very curious
about the background of the American top diplomat's thoughtless remarks and we
will watch what calculations he has.
The
U.S. had better not put any longer our patience to the test with such remarks
irritating us if it doesn't want to have bitter regrets afterwards.
