[North Korean Foreign Ministry Denies U.S. Allegations of 'Cyber Threats' from North Korea] According to a report by the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), a spokesperson for North Korea's Foreign Ministry responded to a journalist's question on May 3 regarding the U.S.'s claims of so-called 'cyber threats' from North Korea. The spokesperson stated that U.S. government agencies, media, and related organizations have recently attempted to spread false perceptions about North Korea to the international community, linking cyber-related fraud incidents worldwide to North Korea. The North Korean Foreign Ministry spokesperson remarked that it is unreasonable for the U.S. to portray itself as a 'victim' and accused the U.S. of using its globally controlled IT infrastructure to carry out indiscriminate cyberattacks on other countries. The spokesperson further stated that the rhetoric surrounding the so-called 'cyber threats' is a continuation of the U.S.'s hostile policy toward North Korea, aimed at spreading false information for political purposes and tarnishing North Korea's image. The spokesperson emphasized that North Korea will protect cyberspace from malicious activities and opposes the use of cyber issues as a political tool to infringe on sovereignty and interfere in the internal affairs of other nations.
