“This clearly testifies that the Security Council has completely lost its impartiality and still persists in applying double standards in its work,” ambassador Pak Gil Yon told the Security Council. “It is gangster-like for the Security Council to have adopted today a coercive resolution while neglecting the nuclear threat and moves for sanctions and pressure of the United States,” he added.
He further accused the United States of preparing a pre-emptive strike on his country.
