UN Ambassador to North Korea "Can't Give Up the Dignity I've Protected Like My Life"

---

North Korean Ambassador to the United Nations Kim Seong said on the 29th that he would not give up its nuclear weapons to lift sanctions against North Korea. Conversely, he stressed that the nuclear threat to North Korea has not disappeared, and emphasized that true peace must have the absolute power to prevent war.

Ambassador Kim said in a speech at the 75th United Nations General Assembly held at the United Nations Headquarters in New York on the same day. We cannot sell our dignity, which we have kept like our lives for. Ambassador Kim's remarks are interpreted as meaning that he will not give up his own nuclear weapons, etc., for the purpose of lifting sanctions against North Korea and economic compensation.

Ambassador Kim argued, Building a peaceful world without war is a consistent goal of the North Korean government. Over the past decades, we have done everything possible to keep peace and security on the Korean Peninsula. Nevertheless, the nuclear threat to North Korea has not subsided, and all kinds of hostilities are occurring before our eyes. It is an undeniable reality that this is directly aiming at North Korea. Our conclusion is that peace does not come spontaneously as a simple wish of either one, nor can it be guaranteed by the other. In a world dominated by tyranny by force, true peace is an absolute It is possible only with strength. Because we have achieved a reliable and effective war deterrent, peace and security on the Korean Peninsula are now firmly guarded.

Ambassador Kim also argued that North Korea is well under control of the Covid-19.

Ambassador Kim said, Now the UN General Assembly is being held at a time when 1 million people are killed and the world is in extreme chaos due to a global pandemic.” I want to convey. In the harsh reality of Covid-19 that continues to intensify, the governments of all countries should exercise effective leadership with a great sense of responsibility for the lives and safety of people. Thanks to the leadership, the corona situation is safely and stably controlled. In the early days of the corona crisis, Chairman Kim Jong-un made a preemptive, timely and powerful emergency prescription to prevent Covid-19 with extraordinary wisdom and strong determination. In response to the continued spread of Covid-19, North Korea is implementing a series of measures to prevent the virus from penetrating into the country and all the people are strictly complying with the quarantine regulations. We will continue to strengthen emergency quarantine measures until the risk of virus penetration completely disappears.

Ambassador Kim also said, While the world is plunging into a pandemic disaster, North Korea has begun construction of the Pyongyang General Hospital, a modern medical facility for the people, and is now reaching its final stage. We are removing the damage caused by floods and typhoons with our own hands and stabilizing people's lives in a short time. The operations of hostile forces that repress North Korea will continue to hinder our progress, but the struggle to overcome this and go on the path to prosperity through our efforts will be further strengthened.

Ambassador Kim referred to multilateralism, the theme of the general discussion, and said, Multilateralism enables peace, security and development through cooperative relations by recognizing different ideas, systems, and cultures among member states. It meets the basic purpose of the United Nations, so it must be recommended and promoted. The era in which individual states dominate international politics unilaterally and enforce their will is over. Multilateralism has become an irresistible global trend. The United Nations must adhere to the principles of equality, mutual respect, fairness, and objectivity, and adhere to the principle of zero tolerance against dogma and sideways.

In this light, we condemn and reject Cuba's economic, trade and financial blockade and decades of economic slaughter. He also expressed his support for the Syrian people to regain Israeli-dominated Golan region, Palestine to establish an independent state, and Venezuela to protect independence from foreign interference. Cuban President Miguel Diascanel also said in his speech on the 22nd, I strongly condemn unilateral and unjust sanctions against North Korea.

Ambassador Kim did not directly mention Korea, the United States, or President Donald Trump in the speech that lasted about 10 minutes. However, he expressed uncomfortable feelings that weapons were being introduced on the Korean Peninsula, and expressed support for Cuba and Venezuela, and indirectly attacked the United States, which is leading the UN sanctions against its country.
