DPRK slams new U.S. unilateral sanctions

(Xinhua)    13:23, August 04, 2017

The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) Thursday slammed U.S for seeking new sanctions against it, reported the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA).

The U.S. President Donald Trump Wednesday signed into law the "Countering America's Adversaries through Sanctions Act" which enacted new sanctions on Iran, Russia and the DPRK.

"Thus, additional sanctions against the DPRK, Russia and Iran were formally adopted as law," said a spokesman for the DPRK Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The DPRK "strongly condemns and rejects" the unilateral sanctions by the United States.

"The sanctions campaign by the U.S. might have influence on other countries, but never on the DPRK," said the spokesman.

He also said the U.S. sanctions will only lift the spirit of the DPRK's army and people to strive for "self-reliance, self-development and self-defensive capability".
