Kim Yo Jong, the sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, harshly criticised South Korea's President Moon Jae-in, saying he had failed to implement any of the 2018 pacts and had made inter-Korean ties a 'U.S. puppet.'
SEOUL - North Korea said on Wednesday it had rejected South Korea's offer to send special envoys to ease escalating bilateral tensions, and vowed to redeploy troops to demilitarised border units in the latest step towards nullifying inter-Korean peace accords.
Moon"greatly favours sending special envoys for 'tiding over crises' and raises preposterous proposals frequently, but he has to clearly understand that such a trick will no longer work on us," KCNA said. In Monday's speech, which marked the 20th anniversary of the first inter-Korean summit, Moon expressed regret that North Korea-U.S. and inter-Korean relations have not made progress as hoped but asked Pyongyang to maintain peace deals and return to dialogue.
