Rodong Sinmun Ridicules Impudent Behavior of Japan

Pyongyang, January 11 (KCNA) -- The Japanese ambassador to the UN reeled off a litany of balderdash about Japan's role in the UN Security Council at a recent press conference. Referring to the situation in various countries including Syria and Libya, he painted Japan as a main player in settling international issues. Commenting on this, Rodong Sinmun Sunday notes that Japan seems to be upbeat after getting the nonpermanent membership of the UNSC for two years from this year. The commentary goes on: What merits attention is that Japan seeks to use this opportunity for ratcheting up the pressure on the DPRK. Japan, an aggression force acting at the beck and call of the U.S. to zealously back it in its hostile policy towards the DPRK, is crying out for confrontation with the DPRK inside the UNSC. This is a blatant challenge to the DPRK. Japan will have to drink a bitter cup of setbacks, if it persistently behaves mischievously, toeing the U.S. hostile policy towards the DPRK. -0-
