“A ball is a ball and sand is sand” criticized U.S. hostile policy… but leaves possibility for dialogue,
,
, ‘As the possibility of re-election for former U.S. President Donald Trump increases, North Korea has expressed its stance on North Korea-U.S. relations. While most of the content criticized the U.S. for military threats, it also showed an attitude that the future development depends on U.S. actions.’,
, ‘On the 23rd, North Korea’s state-run media criticized the U.S. for deploying FA-18 fighter jets in South Korea, stating, “The U.S. up until a few days ago pushed for dialogue that included various officials such as the State Department spokesperson and the U.S. ambassador to South Korea, claiming there is ‘no change’ in the U.S.’s policy toward North Korea, and saying the door for negotiations with North Korea is ‘still open.'”‘,
, ‘The news agency pointed out that “the honeyed words of dialogue by those obsessed with confrontation-induced idealism aim to induce mental and psychological collapse in our nation, and dialogue laden with impurities as an extension of confrontation is unnecessary from the start.”‘,
, ‘They emphasized, “For nearly 80 years since the founding of our Republic, the U.S. has consistently pursued the most malicious and persistent hostile policy toward North Korea.”‘,
, ‘The news agency questioned, “As the U.S. feverishly conducts provocative war exercises by incessantly mobilizing nuclear strategic assets, augmenting advanced military equipment, and even simulating nuclear operations, can we believe in their talk of dialogue and negotiations no matter how many times they repeat those empty words?”‘,
, ‘The news agency stressed, “The decision to whether the spark of North Korea-U.S. confrontation will be extinguished or continue depends entirely on the behavior of the U.S.”‘,
