All That Matters | North Korea To Strengthen Defence Capabilities To Face United States @lookskewl087 | Uploaded 9 years ago | Updated 1 hour ago
North Korea vowed to boost its defence capabilities, including nuclear capabilities, saying that nuclear free Korean Peninsula had "lost its meaning" amid a hostile US policy.
On Thursday, the United Nations General Assembly voted in favor of referring North Korea to the International Criminal Court in a resolution initiated by the European Union and Japan.
Pyongyang accused the united states of launching a human rights "racket" against it, which it claimed was a "dangerous, politically-motivated attempt to invent an excuse for mounting an invasion on north korea", Xinhua reported.
"It is the most vivid manifestation of the US' hostile policy towards north korea, aimed at isolating and stifling it at any cost," the north korea foreign ministry was quoted by the official KCNA news agency as saying in a statement, which was cited by the Xinhua report.
In the statement, Pyongyang completely rejected the human rights resolution, passed by the UN General Assembly, which it said failed to reflect the actual human rights situation, in North Korea and thus could never be valid.
