North Korea says the United Nations Security Council applied double standards over military activities among U.N. member states amid international criticism over its recent missile tests.
Jo Chol Su, director of the North Korean foreign ministry's Department of International Organisations, said the UNSC meeting means an"open ignorance of and wanton encroachment" on its sovereignty and"serious intolerable provocation."Jo accused the Council of double standards as it remains silent about U.S. joint military exercises and weapons tests with allies, while taking issue with the North's"self-defensive" activities.
"This is a denial of impartiality, objectivity and equilibrium, lifelines of the U.N. activities, and an evident manifestation of double-dealing standard," Jo said in a statement carried by the official KCNA news agency.
