Rodong Sinmun Thursday in a commentary terms this an unpardonable and hideous provocation against the DPRK.

It is none other than the puppet chief executive who is behind it, the paper says, adding:

The puppet group has committed hideous provocations hurting the dignity of the supreme leadership and social system of the DPRK but it is the first time for the group to commit such a hideous provocation.

The situation goes to clearly prove that the puppet group has gone mad, being obsessed with sycophancy toward the U.S. and confrontation with compatriots.

The puppet group pulled up the compatriots and staged the confrontation burlesque without hesitation, not content with labeling the progressive and democratic forces opposed to the U.S. war moves for aggression as the "followers of the north". They are traitors who deserve stern punishment.

The army and people of the DPRK will certainly force the group to pay a high price for the crimes it committed by daring hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK.
