The official news agency KCNA of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) on Monday blasted Japanese conservatives' comments on the U.S. delisting of the country.
"It is a criminal act to scuttle the denuclearization process," said the KCNA, referring to the "regrettable" comments by some Japanese conservatives on the U.S. decision to remove the DPRK from its terrorism and sanctions blacklists.
Last Thursday, the DPRK submitted the accounts of its nuclear inventory and the United States accordingly started the process of removing it from the state sponsors of terrorism list and lifting sanctions imposed under its Trading with the Enemy Act.
Japan, a participant of the six-party talks aimed at denuclearizing the Korean Peninsula, reserves its support for the U.S. gestures due to the alleged abduction of its citizens in the 1970s and 1980s by the DPRK.
