Pyongyang, January 4 (KCNA) — A spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry of the DPRK gave the following answer to a question raised by KCNA on January 4 as regards the fact that the U.S. wildly violated the sovereignty of Venezuela:

We are paying attention to the gravity of the present Venezuelan situation caused by the U.S. high-handedness act, in connection with the increase of instability to be added to the already weakened regional situation.

The incident is another example that clearly confirms once again the rogue and brutal nature of the U.S. which the international community has so frequently witnessed for a long time.

The Foreign Ministry of the DPRK strongly denounces the U.S. hegemony-seeking act committed in Venezuela as the most serious form of encroachment of sovereignty and as a wanton violation of the UN Charter and international laws with respect for sovereignty, non-interference and territorial integrity as their main purpose.

The international community should recognize the seriousness of the present Venezuelan situation, which caused a catastrophic consequence to ensuring the identity of the regional and international relations structure, and raise voices of due protest and denunciation against the U.S habituated violation of sovereignty of other countries.
