North Korea on Monday slammed South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol for making “hysterical” remarks after he warned against possible military cooperation between Pyongyang and Moscow last week.
It is natural for neighboring countries to keep close relations with each other and the development of friendship and cooperation among nations is the legitimate right of a sovereign state and the foundation for regional and global peace and stability, the North’s official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said.
Yoon said in a UN General Assembly speech that any arms deal between Pyongyang and Moscow would be considered a “direct provocation” against South Korea, amid growing concerns about their military cooperation in the wake of a summit between North Korean leader Kim Jong-un and Russian President Vladimir Putin, according to South Korea’s news agency (Yonhap).
