North Korea Slams Germany for Joining UN Command—Says Germany’s Past Is Haunting Its Present

Daniel Kim Views  

On the 2nd, South Korean Defense Minister Shin Won Sik and German Defense Minister Boris Pistorius held a meeting of the defense ministers of South Korea and Germany / South Korea’s Ministry of National Defense

North Korea’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs claimed Germany would bear full responsibility for the consequences of joining the United Nations Command, which would worsen the military and political situation on the Korean Peninsula.

A North Korean ministry spokesperson made this statement in a public address to the Korean Central News Agency: “Germany announced on the 2nd that it had joined the United Nations Command, a multinational invasion organization led by the United States.”

The spokesperson continued, “The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea) strongly condemns this action, considering it an act that undermines peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula and escalates tensions.”

North Korea’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs has strongly criticized Germany’s recent actions by referencing its dark past during World War II. They argued, “Germany’s actions bring back memories of its regrettable history, which inflicted tremendous suffering on humanity.”

The statement further warned, “Germany must realize that intervening militarily in the Korean Peninsula, a significant global hotspot, could harm its own security and tarnish its international reputation.”

This reaction followed Germany’s recent accession as the 18th member of the United Nations Command on August 2nd.
