N. Korea Criticizes Netanyahu Statement


(MENAFN- Qatar News Agency) Ongyang may 18 (qna) - north korea's foreign ministry criticized israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu for saying that the north is cooperating with iran on developing nuclear missiles.

a foreign ministry spokesperson said netanyahu is trying to divert international criticism of israel caused by its settlement activity and breakdown in the middle east peace talks adding that his statement is a shallow trick to continue expansionist ambitions in the middle eastern region according to korea's (kbs world) website.

the spokesperson said israel is a cancer to peace in the middle east and it is absurd that the country talks about threat when it covertly possesses a tremendous amount of nuclear weapons under us protection.

the spokesperson said israel must shed its bad habit of picking on others when it is driven to the corner and must respond to international demands to achieve peace and denuclearization in the middle east.

in an interview with the mainichi shimbun published wednesday netanyahu said iran is sharing its missile and nuclear development technology with north korea. (qna)
