I have once again heard the barking of the dog. South
I should like to explain our position once again. The South Korean representative’s action in this Hall is indecent. We are debating a nuclear issue. His statement is on human rights, and he is even attacking our country’s socialist system. He i…
I speak in exercise of the right of reply to the representatives of Japan, Ireland, the United States and other countries who referred to our country. My statement is to help in the understanding of the gravity of the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula.

Therefore, we hold the consistent position that the nuclear issue on the Korean peninsula is…
I should like to thank the Secretary-General, Mr. Boutros Boutros-Ghali, for his comprehensive report (A/51/1). I should also like to thank him for his attention to the Korean question.

We cannot show any respect to Mr. Ro-Myung Gong, the so-called Foreign Minister of South Korea, as he is one of the organizers of the killing of our people in South Korea.
