STORY CONTINUES BELOW THESE SALTWIRE VIDEOSSEOUL - North Korea slammed a recent United Nations meeting about its human rights record, asserting the United States used the international organisation for a"scheme" against Pyongyang, state media KCNA reported on Saturday.
U.S. President Joe Biden and the leaders of South Korea and Japan agreed at Camp David on Friday to deepen military and economic cooperation, facing China's growing power and nuclear threats from North Korea. They also agreed to hold military training exercises annually and share real-time information on North Korean missile launches by the end of the year.
"We will never tolerate the U.S. and its followers' anti- 'human rights' slander scheme, and will defend the sovereignty of the state, the socialist system and security interests," North Korea's KCNA quoted as an unnamed spokesperson from the country's human rights think tank as saying.
