The US Secretary of State Pompei said that China's claim for maritime interests in the South China Sea was "illegal," the North Korean Foreign Ministry announced in a discourse and criticized as "accusing."

U.S. Secretary of State Pompei issued a statement yesterday, clarifying his opposition to China, saying that it is "totally illegal" for China to claim interests in almost all of the South China Sea. A spokesman for the North Korean Foreign Ministry said in a statement on the 15th, saying, "We are not even an Asian country, but we are talking about the South China Sea issue beyond the Pacific Ocean."

In addition, he criticized, "We are looking at China from a morbid point of view, and we are doing the same with the socialist people led by the Korean Labor Party." He praised China as saying "The Communist Party of China is undefeated."

North Korea also fully supports China's increasing control over Hong Kong and the increasing pressure of the United States.

Amidst the ongoing conflict between the United States and China, North Korea seems to have the aim of restraining the United States by emphasizing the position of China and emphasizing friendly relations with China.
