UN committee criticizes N. Korea rights violations

Published: 11.20.09, 08:46 / Israel News

North Korea's deputy United Nations ambassador Pak Tok Hun rejected the resolution, calling it the result of a "political conspiracy" led by the United States against the country in an attempt to "obliterate the state and social system." (AP)
