North Korean authorities criticized the European Union (EU) today for recently condemning "continuous ballistic missile tests", and added that denuclearization is no longer "on the agenda" of negotiations with the US.
European members of the UN Security Council condemned North Korea's ballistic tests this Sunday and added that sanctions against that country remain in force.
Belgium, France, Germany, Poland, Great Britain and Estonia, which will become a member of the UN Security Council in January, condemned the continuation of North Korea's nuclear program during a meeting held behind closed doors at the UN.
"It is another serious provocation against North Korea," which has the right to strengthen its national security capabilities, North Korean ambassador to the UN Kim Song said.
"We wonder what those European countries who have been playing watchdog for the US in recent months get in return," added Kim, referring to the "paranoia" of Europeans and the "hostile policy" of the US.
According to him, North Korea no longer needs "long talks" with the US since "the issue of denuclearization is no longer on the agenda of negotiations."
Negotiations on denuclearization have been stalled for months. North Korea has given the US until the end of December to present a "new deal offer".
