The greatest hypocrisy of the modern era👇
The UN "condemns the DPRK for pursuing nuclear weapons instead of the welfare of its people" while implementing the very sanctions that sabotage the welfare of NKers.
UN Security Council Resolutions on North Korea

2/There's a reason why John Bolton is called "human scum" by the DPRK. The former US NSA's piece:
The Legal Case for Striking North Korea First
wsj.com/articles/the-l…
leaves them w/ no choice but to develop nuclear deterrence capable of withstanding a preemptive nuclear first

3/strike the US has publicly announced they "have the right to do" in the name of "self-defense". And what the US did to Libya has DPRK firmly convinced a US Admin "tomorrow" will go back on its word. DPRK has acted correctly by making nuclear deterrence

4/a permanent part of their national defense.
While the evolution of FFVD/CVID has changed thru the decades, Kim Jong Un's 2020 NYD's speech to now is proof positive that DPRK's US strategy has completely changed. "Denuclearization steps for sanctions lifting" died in Hanoi -

5/thanks to John Bolton. DPRK went back to the drawing board after Hanoi and resolved to make nuclear deterrence a permanent part of national defense. The FFVD/CVID ship has fully sailed never to return, and any talks of such is DOA. FM has given DC a message: "Power for power,

6/goodwill for goodwill". If Washington keeps denying reality, we could be in for a "nuclear showdown", as DPRK sure as hell will never give the US all of it's nuclear weapons. Some, absolutely, but all is out of the question. Wars result from situations like these. Let's hope

7/the UN & US pull their heads out of their a##es in time, respect DPRK as a sovereign nuclear state and act more humanely. They are "paying God" but there is a real Supreme Being whose sense of justice is fair, not perverted as the US's & UN's is. Self-Defense is UNIVERSAL.
