Kim Song, Chair of Delegation of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, addresses the general debate of the 76th Session of the General Assembly of the United Nations (New York, 21-27 September 2021).
Ambassador Kim Song of the DPRK today (27 Sep) told the General Assembly’s General Debate that “the possible outbreak of a new war on the Korean peninsula is contained not because of the US’ mercy” but because “our state is growing reliable deterrent that can control the hostile forces in their attempts for military invasion.”
Kim said the DPRK has “stored reliable power to defend ourselves by exerting continuous efforts, with a clear insight into the demand of the times which necessitates us to possess sufficient might for national defense in the face of the geopolitical environment and the balance of power on the Korean peninsula as well as ever-straining international relations.”
The DPRK representative said, “as the whole world knows and as the US is so much concerned, powerful offensive means are, of course, included in our war deterrent. However, we do not want to use those means aiming at somebody. In other words, we would never violate nor endanger the security of the US, south Korea and our neighboring countries.”
He said, “we are just building up our national defense in order to defend ourselves and reliably safeguard the security and peace of the country.”
The UN General Assembly (UNGA) is the main policy-making organ of the Organization. Comprising all Member States, it provides a unique forum for multilateral discussion of the full spectrum of international issues covered by the Charter of the United Nations. Each of the 193 Member States of the United Nations has an equal vote.
The United Nations is an international organization founded in 1945. Currently made up of 193 Member States, the UN and its work are guided by the purposes and principles contained in its founding Charter.
The UN has evolved over the years to keep pace with a rapidly changing world.
But one thing has stayed the same: it remains the one place on Earth where all the world’s nations can gather together, discuss common problems, and find shared solutions that benefit all of humanity.
