Kim Yo Jong, the sister and senior aid of North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un, condemned the international community's reaction to North Korea's launch of a military spy satellite, which crashed into waters off the Korean Peninsula's western coast on Tuesday.
Kim singled out the United States, accusing it of hypocrisy, "gangster-like logic" and "inveterate hostility" toward North Korea.
"If the DPRK's satellite launch should be particularly censured, the U.S. and all other countries, which have already launched thousands of satellites, should be denounced," Kim said in a statement Wednesday published by North Korean state-run agency KCNA. She also accused the U.S. of "watching every movement" of North Korea with its own reconnaissance satellites and planes.
