North Korea said Monday that the six-party talks aimed at resolving the Korean Peninsula nuclear issue and the US' ambition to "overthrow the system" of North Korea can never go together.
"Things are happening that make one feel doubt again about the US' approach to the six-party talks," the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said in a commentary released after a report said earlier that the US has recently appointed a "presidential envoy for the human rights issue of North Korea."
"The US appointed that 'envoy' at the moment when there was a brisk movement for the resumption and progress of the temporarily adjourned six-party talks," said the commentary.
"This suggests that the greater the expectation for the six-party talks and the faster the process of the denuclearization of the Korean Peninsula, the fiercer the US' 'human rights' offensive against North Korea will be," it said.
"It is a disregard of the sovereignty of North Korea and is aimed to overthrow its system," the commentary said.
"The six-party talks and the 'overthrow of the system' can never go together," stressed the commentary.
"This is the lesson drawn from the suspension of the talks for 13 months. If the US behaves without discretion and is oblivious of this lesson, it would be entirely to blame for all the consequences arising from this," the commentary added.
