The North Korean government issued a statement condemning the attacks by the United States and Israel on Iran, declaring them illegal actions that undermine global stability. It also reaffirmed respect for Iran's decision to select a new Supreme Leader.
North Korea's Ministry of Foreign Affairs released a statement criticizing the United States and Israel's attacks on Iran, describing them as illegal acts that have escalated tensions in the region and worldwide.
A spokesperson for North Korea's Ministry of Foreign Affairs disclosed on Wednesday that the Pyongyang government strongly condemns these attacks, accusing the US and Israel of destroying regional peace and increasing global insecurity through military force against Iran. This statement was distributed via the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), North Korea's state news outlet.
Additionally, North Korea criticized external interference in Iran's political system, warning that threats or military actions aimed at undermining another country's government are unacceptable.
The Pyongyang government also stated its respect for the Assembly of Experts, Iran's senior clerical body responsible for selecting the country's Supreme Leader, emphasizing that the choice of a new leader reflects the rights and decisions of the Iranian people.
North Korea's stance comes amid rising tensions in the Middle East following military attacks and uncertainty surrounding Iran's new Supreme Leader, a position holding the highest political and religious authority in the country.
Analysts view North Korea's public position as an effort by Pyongyang to support its political allies on the international stage while criticizing the United States' role in global conflicts.
