North Korea Accuses US of Instigating⁤ ‘Anti-Russian Confrontation’ in Europe

The director of ​the North Korean Foreign Ministry’s Foreign Policy Office released a statement on September 13, claiming that the United States has pushed Europe into a ​crisis by ⁤instigating an ‘anti-Russian⁤ confrontation’.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that recent‍ remarks by⁤ U.S. Secretary of State Tony Blinken, stating that anti-Russian military‍ support from North Korea, China, Russia, and Iran ⁤threatens all⁢ of Europe, were “a political provocation that groundlessly disparages cooperation based on mutual benefit and equality between the Russian Federation and sovereign states and denounces it as a ​‘threat’ to Europe.”

The statement added, “This clearly shows the US’s evil intention to exaggerate the ‘security crisis’ in​ European countries and shift responsibility for the current situation in⁤ Ukraine to third parties, thereby further solidifying its followers on the anti-Russian ⁣front and giving ‘legitimacy’ ‍and continuity to their confrontational maneuvers.”

The​ Ministry of Foreign Affairs also expressed⁢ strong regret over the extremely irresponsible and inappropriate remarks by U.S. diplomatic officials that distorted⁢ the essence of the Ukrainian situation and slandered independent sovereign states, and completely rejected them.

The statement argued that “all the facts prove​ that the United ⁤States, which is inciting conflict and ⁢confrontation,​ inciting NATO and its proxy forces to confront Russia, and encouraging the perpetuation​ of war, is​ the existential threat facing Europe and the international community.”

Statement by the Director of the​ Foreign⁢ Policy Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of ⁣the Democratic⁣ People’s ⁤Republic of Korea

Recently, US Secretary of State Blinken has committed a‌ political provocation by groundlessly disparaging cooperation based on mutual benefit and equality between the Russian Federation and sovereign states ⁣and branding it a “threat” to Europe.

This ⁤clearly shows ⁢the US’s evil intention to exaggerate the “security⁢ crisis” in European ‌countries and shift responsibility ⁣for ⁣the current situation in Ukraine to third parties, thereby further solidifying its followers on the anti-Russian front and giving “legitimacy” and continuity to their ‌confrontational maneuvers.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of ​Korea strongly regrets and completely rejects the US diplomatic authorities’ extremely irresponsible and inappropriate remarks that distorted ⁣the essence of the Ukrainian situation and slandered independent sovereign states.

Although the US Secretary of State is trying to​ deceive the international community by turning black and white, it is⁣ absolutely impossible to hide or ​deny the fact that the root ​cause of the outbreak and prolongation of the ⁣Ukraine crisis and the instability in Europe is the United States.

The main culprit ‍behind the Ukraine crisis is none other than the United States, which ignored​ Russia’s legitimate security interests ‌and territorial integrity⁢ and encouraged ​NATO’s reckless eastward advance in its ambition to establish unipolar hegemony.

The United‌ States is ⁣also the main culprit behind the systematic transfer of murder equipment, including Abrams tanks, F-16 fighter⁣ jets, and ATACMS long-range missiles, to Ukraine, with the sole intention of inflicting a strategic defeat on Russia, while disregarding the international community’s⁤ unanimous demands and aspirations for⁣ a speedy peaceful resolution to the‍ Ukrainian situation, resulting in innocent civilian casualties and the prolongation of‌ the situation.

It is also the United ⁤States that is ⁤bringing about a‍ catastrophic war across Europe by pledging to deploy long-range missiles aimed at Russia⁣ in Europe today, by staging a series of‍ NATO-led⁢ anti-Russian war⁤ exercises, and by revealing an attempt to lift ⁤the ban on ‍Ukraine’s ‌use of long-range weapons against⁢ deep-rooted Russian territory.

The facts prove that the United States, which is inciting ‌conflict and confrontation, inciting NATO and its proxy forces to confront Russia, and encouraging the perpetuation of war, is the existential threat⁣ facing Europe and the international community.

The Ukraine crisis will never be an opportunity to revive⁢ the weakened position of the United States, and the Russian people will triumphantly achieve their just goals.

The international community should not tolerate the reckless behavior ​of the United States,​ which is​ mortgaging‌ the entire security of Europe and is frantically pursuing military confrontation in order to realize its hegemonic interests, and should work together to protect peace and stability in the region.

We will continue to support⁢ and encourage the just⁤ cause ‌of the Russian people, who⁢ are ⁣working hard to destroy imperialist hegemonic policies and power and to protect sovereignty and build a fair multipolar ⁢world.
