Baku-Sana
The DPRK affirmed that the United States continues to exert political and military provocations that impede the settlement process on the Korean Peninsula.
"The United States continues to pursue old aggressive policies towards us," Choi Ryong-hye, first vice-chairman of the State Affairs Committee and chairman of the Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly, said in a speech at the 18th NAM summit in Baku. Relations between the DPRK and the United States can overcome the current situation and give no indication of improvement, "he said, adding that there are only two ways to develop the situation on the Korean Peninsula, either to achieve full peace through easing tension or return to escalation and crisis.
"One year has passed since the adoption of a joint statement between the DPRK and the United States. We do not see any improvement and the situation on the Korean Peninsula remains stuck in the vicious circle of escalating tensions," he said. ”.
The DPRK said in June that the United States had not fulfilled its obligations under the Korea-US Joint Statement signed in Singapore in June last year, warning Washington that if it continued its hostile policy toward it, the fate of the joint statement could not be guessed.
DPRK President Kim Jong-un and US President Donald Trump signed a joint communiqué at their first meeting in Singapore in June last year, while the second meeting in Hanoi was held without agreement on Washington's sanctions on Pyongyang.
