North Korea agitated over Biden's criticism, says US President's statement provocative
Fueled by US President Joe Biden's statement, North Korea said its comments were provocative. Biden (US President Joe Biden) criticized North Korea's recent missile tests and warned that it would be prepared to bear the consequences if it increased tensions. North Korea's official Korea Central News Agency (KCNA) on Saturday quoted a statement issued by senior officer Ri Pyong Chol as saying that President Biden's remarks were provocative and an encroachment of North Korea's self-defense rights. .
North Korea will continue to step up to increase its military strength. Biden told reporters on Thursday, 'We are in consultation with our allied countries. If they follow the path of tension, we will respond accordingly. North Korea tested the new guided missiles on Thursday. KCNA had reported that the two guided missiles were fully successful in hitting targets on Thursday. While Japanese officials said that North Korea tested two ballistic missiles.
Experts believe that North Korea is acting in such a way to put pressure on the Biden administration, so that any kind of dialogue between the two countries can be taken advantage of in the future. However, both have been holding nuclear talks since 2019. The then US President Donald Trump and North Korea's supreme leader Kim Jong Un met three times but nothing was made. In the talks held in 2019, the US rejected North Korea's demand to lift the sanctions. North Korea has so far ignored attempts to negotiate the Biden administration (US President Joe Biden).
