North Korean officials stated that such a move would be \u201cdoomed to face self-destruction.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>North Korea\u2019s Ambassador to the U.N., Kim Song, issued a statement condemning South Korea, the United States, Japan, and 47 other countries for jointly calling for \u201cobjective\u201d and \u201cindependent\u201d analysis regarding the enforcement of anti-North Korea sanctions. He said this came after the mandate of the panel of experts ended last month due to Russia\u2019s veto on its renewal.<\/p>\n<p>Officials mentioned that during a trip to Seoul in April, U.S. Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield said the U.S. would work with South Korea to explore \u201ccreative\u201d and \u201cout of the box\u201d ways to find an alternative to the experts\u2019 panel, even outside of the U.N. system.<\/p>\n<p>The North Korean envoy asserted that the termination of the monitoring panel represented a judgment by history on an organization that was illegal and bred plots. He portrayed the panel of experts as an instrument employed by the United States and other Western nations to extinguish a sovereign state\u2019s right to exist.<\/p><\/div>\n<div>\nHe stated in a statement carried by North Korea\u2019s official Korean Central News Agency that the hostile forces might establish the second and third expert panels in the future, but they were all destined to face self-destruction with time. He warned that if the U.S. and its allies persistently pursued the anachronistic hostile policy toward the DPRK, they would face a more miserable strategic defeat, without drawing a lesson from the recent case. He used the acronym of North Korea\u2019s official name, the Democratic People\u2019s Republic of Korea.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>North Korea criticizes the U.S. and its allies for seeking alternatives to the UN sanctions panel.
