The United States' move to overthrow the Iraqi regime is a grave encroachment upon a sovereign state and an act of state terrorism, a spokesman for the Foreign Ministry of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) said on Saturday.
With the aim to overthrow its leader and regime, the unilateral attack on Iraq regardless of worldwide opposition is a "grave encroachment upon the sovereignty of Iraq," the spokesman said in an interview with the Korean Central News Agency.
"The arrogant and outrageous behavior of the United States that adopted it as its national policy to kill the leader of another country is a typical state terrorism that can never be tolerated," the spokesman said.
The United States has no right to change the regime of another country and such an act of state terrorism will not be allowed by any sovereign state, he added.
"Those who have committed such grave state terrorism as doing harm to the safety, peace and human life of another country going beyond the limit to high-handed and arbitrary practices will be sternly judged by history," the spokesman said.
