Former U.N. Ambassador John Bolton
by
A senior North Korea official on Monday urged the United States to behave as if it seriously wants peace.
In his short speech to the general assembly of
the Inter-Parliamentary Union (IPU), a global organization based in
Geneva, Ri Jong Hyok said, "Now is the high time to put an end to the
U.S. anachronistic anti-DPRK hostile policy and its futile moves of
sanctions and pressure."
"The United States should properly understand
our position and come out in a manner of sincere and serious attitude
for positively contributing to maintaining peace and stability on the
Korean peninsula," Ri, a member of the Supreme People’s Assembly and
director of the National Reunification Institute, added.
He has previously said the United States' decades-long nuclear threats were the sole
driving factor behind his country's development of nuclear weapons, and
asserted Monday that his country wants to build a "just and peaceful new world, free from aggression and war."
