North Korea is arguably the most isolationistic nation on Earth , abiding by its quasi - theocratic “ juche ” version of totalism and shutting itself off from the entire world – with the periodic exception of China , that is . They are all about self - reliance , oppression , censorship , and militaryprovocation .
That ’s why it ’s pretty strange when you realize that they signed up to the Paris arrangement age ago . Not only that , but its governing has even sign it , which means its actively going along with its goals .
Now , in what is easily one of the strangest stories of 2017 , they ’re taking the piddle out of America forpulling out of it . North Korea has , for the first time in eons , the moral high ground .
respond to the Rose Garden promulgation , an unnamed North Korean official from their Foreign Ministry released a statement declaring the President ’s decision to be “ the height of swelled head and moral vacuum seeking only their own well - being at the price of the entire satellite . ”
“ Whoever choose to blindly keep abreast the Trump administration overpowered by its bravado should be amply cognizant that the judgement of history shall take them all as one , ” they added .
As has been widely reported in the last few days , only Nicaragua and Syria have failed to sign the accord , the former because they did n’t imagine it run far enough and the latter because they are kind of busy with a close - revelatory polite war . Unless something major changes in the next few age , it appear like America will join that untitled clubhouse of two too .
A cardinal tenet of North Korean propaganda is that America is their telephone number one opposition , the devil incarnate , the scum of the Earth – so it ’s entirely unsurprising when a uproariously warring television programme peril the Land of the Free with a“super - mighty pre-emptive rap ” . We ’re sure the President today would respond to that with a “ bigly rocket engine launching ” .
Still , it is avowedly amusing that the communist state is ribbing the US over its withdrawal from the Paris agreement in similarly bellicose terms .
The North Korean regimen was briefly a fan of Trump during the election campaign , presumptively because Clinton was taking a far harder line of credit on the hermit kingdom . It recent month , however , they have since called him , among other things , “ unlearned ” . It ’s hard to disaccord with this thought .
In any case , the secretive State Department has a very grim C footprint because it barely has any diligence , Agriculture Department , or even transit to talk of , so their involvement in the Paris accords wo n’t make a major difference . Still – good for them , we suppose .
