Australian FM's Anti-DPRK Invectives Slammed

  Pyongyang, June 22 (KCNA) -- The spokesman for the DPRK Foreign Ministry gave the following answer to a question put by KCNA Sunday as regards the anti-DPRK invectives made by the Australian foreign minister:
    On June 19 the Australian foreign minister at a telephone interview dared hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK, not content with slandering its just line and policy including the bolstering of nuclear deterrence for self-defence.
    Great irony is that although she is the foreign minister of a country, she unhesitatingly let loose a spate of reckless remarks slandering the other country and interfering in its internal affairs, not properly understanding even the elementary principle of the UN Charter and the essence of the regional peace and security.
    Anyone of reason recognizes the stark reality that the threat to the peace and security in the Korean peninsula and in the region is being posed by the U.S. which has ceaselessly staged in collusion with the south Korean puppet forces joint military exercises chiefly aimed to "occupy Pyongyang" with huge armed forces for aggression and lethal weapons involved.
    Stunning is that the Australian foreign minister dared hurt the dignity of the DPRK's supreme leadership while talking about what she called legitimacy.
    She is not entitled to call for legitimacy as she is no more than a stooge carrying out the U.S. hostile policy toward the DPRK and echoing others' sophism without his own foreign policy and view.
    The DPRK will never pardon but resolutely punish anyone who dares slander the dignity of its supreme leadership. -
