North Ministry of Foreign Affairs: "US, Destroyer of Human Rights and Democracy... Stop Interfering in Internal Affairs" View original image

[Asia Economy Reporter Lee Ji-eun] North Korea criticized the United States as "the destroyer of human rights and democracy" in relation to the Afghanistan situation.


On the 5th, North Korea's Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated on its website in an article titled "The United States' Interference in Internal Affairs Under the Banner of Human Rights," "The international community has already come to clearly realize through the Afghanistan situation that the United States is the destroyer of human rights and democracy."


The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said, "The United States should immediately stop its interference in the internal affairs of other countries, realizing that no country will listen to their 'human rights' rhetoric anymore," and criticized, "If the United States still thinks it can arbitrarily label countries that displease them as 'human rights violators,' 'dictatorships,' or 'terror-supporting states' and boss them around, it is a miscalculation."


It also exposed the reality of racial discrimination in the United States, where protesters against racial discrimination are treated as 'rioters.'



Regarding the recent statement by the international human rights organization Human Rights Watch that "human rights violations at the level of North Korea should not occur in Afghanistan," it criticized, "If Human Rights Watch is so concerned about human rights, before slandering anyone, it should first properly explain why the United States, the biggest human rights violator, has remained silent about the drone strike a few days ago that killed a considerable number of civilians, including children."
