Seoul: North Korea has replied to US criticism for the test against ballistic missiles launched on submarines this week, saying it really exists its rights to self-defense and that the weapon does not specifically target the United States.
Comments by an unknown spokesman from the North Korean Foreign Ministry on Thursday came when the UN Security Council was set to hold an emergency meeting closed through the launch of the demand for the United States and England.
On Tuesday, the North launched new ballistic missiles from submarines in his first test of the weaponry in two years, marking his most significant military demonstration since President Joe Biden served.
Washington has condemned the launch, which underlined how north continued to expand the military capabilities amid the freezing of nuclear diplomacy, and called for Pyongyang to “engage in sustainable and substantive dialogue.” In comments published by the official Korean Central News Agency Pyongyang, a North Korean spokesman said the last test did not pose a direct threat to neighboring countries and that there was no need for Washington to hurt weapons that did not specifically target the United States.
Pyongyang said spokesman said the “serious concern” for what he saw as a “unreasonable” reaction by the United States on his rights practice for defense.
Nuclear negotiations between Washington and Pyongyang have stopped for more than two years due to differences of opinion in exchanging the release of LED M.-LED sanctions against North Korea and the northern denuclirization steps.
Ending Lull for months in September, North Korea has increased his weapon test while making conditional peace offers to Seoul, reviving the South Korean pressure pattern to try to get what he wants from the United States.
North Korea has tried hard for years to get the ability to fire nuclear armed missiles from submarines.
Submarine missiles are the next key part in Arsenal covering various weapons, including those with potential ranges to reach American land.
However, experts say it will take years, a large number of resources and improved major technology for countries that are highly approved to build at least several submarines that can travel calmly in the sea and execute strikes reliably.
