Korean leader Kim Jong-un dismissed US calls for a return to diplomacy.<\/p>\n<p>Kim Yo-jong&#8217;s furious repartee came after US Ambassador to the United Nations Linda Thomas-Greenfield called Pyongyang\u2019s satellite launch a \u201creckless, unlawful\u201d action that threatens its neighbors.<\/p>\n<p>Thomas-Greenfield however renewed the US&#8217;s offer for dialogue without any preconditions, saying North Korea \u201ccan choose the timing and topic&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>But Kim rejected the US overture and threatened more satellite and other weapons launches in violation of UN bans.<\/p>\n<p>In a statement to North Korean state media, she said: \u201cThe sovereignty of an independent state can never be an agenda item for negotiations, and therefore, (North Korea) will never sit face to face with the US for that purpose.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

make efforts to develop everything belonging to its sovereign rights and continue to exercise the sovereign rights, enjoyed by all the member states of the UN, in a dignified manner without being restricted in the future, too.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Pyongyang has been banned from performing any launches using ballistic technology, such as satellite liftoffs and missile tests.<\/p>\n<p>But the rogue nation has argued it has sovereign rights to launch spy satellites and test-flight ballistic missiles to cope with what it calls US-led military threats.<\/p>\n<p>North Korea views major US-South Korean military drills as invasion rehearsal and often reacts with its own weapons tests.<\/p>\n<p>Kim Yo-jong said the UN Security Council meeting last Monday was convened at \u201cthe gangster-like demand of the US and its followers.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kim, who has been helping her brother oversee North Korea&#8217;s policies and is a leading member of his Cabinet, said Thomas-Greenfield must first explain why US strategic assets have frequently appeared at South Korean ports.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\"

aircraft carriers and nuclear-powered submarines in line with an earlier US-South Korean agreement to boost their defence against North Korea\u2019s evolving nuclear threats.<\/p>\n<p>After two failed launch attempts earlier this year, North Korea claimed to put its first military reconnaissance satellite into orbit last week.<\/p>\n<p>The North has since claimed its \u201cMalligyong-1\u201d spy satellite was transmitting imagery with space views of key sites in the US and South Korea, such as the White House and the Pentagon.<\/p>\n<p>US and South Korean officials confirmed the North Korean satellite entered orbit but outside experts still doubt whether the North Korean satellite can produce militarily meaningful high-resolution imagery.<\/p>\n<p>Pentagon press secretary Brig. Gen. Pat Ryder told a briefing Tuesday: \u201cI will say that there are plenty of images of the Pentagon and the White House online, so I\u2019ll just leave it at that. Yeah?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The spy satellite launch deepened animosities between North and South Korea, with the rivals taking respective hostile military steps along their heavily fortified border in breach of their previous tension-reduction deal.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Follow our social media accounts here on facebook.com\/ExpressUSNews and @expressusnews<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.express.co.uk\/news\/world\/1840682\/kim-yo-jong-sister-kim-jong-un-rejects-us-diplomacy-north-korea\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>North Korea says it tested new solid-fuel long-range missile The powerful sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un dismissed US calls for a return to diplomacy.
