North Korea says Biden administration took wrong first step over latest missile test
North Korea said on Saturday that the administration of U.S. President Joe Biden had taken a wrong first step and revealed “deep-seated hostility” by criticising its self-defensive missile test. Biden said the test violated U.N. Security Council resolutions but he remained open to diplomacy with Pyongyang. Ri Pyong Chol, secretary of the North’s ruling Worker’s Party’s Central Committee, said the test was self-defensive against threats posed by South Korea and the United States with their joint military exercises and advanced weapons.
