Commenting on this, Minju Joson Tuesday says the U.S.-style arrogance and self-complacency have gone beyond the tolerance limit to reach the stage where it lords it over the world in disregard of international law and practices.

The commentary goes on:

Space is not a monopoly of someone but a property common to humankind and this is guaranteed by international law.

The U.S. is keeping itself busy, trumpeting about adopting a new domestic act on space development. This reflects, in essence, its ambition to become "space gendarme".

It is the U.S. ambition to monopolize space, study and develop space-related technology and meet its own interests.

In recent years the U.S. branded the DPRK's space development for peaceful purpose as "missile development" while egging its followers on to put "international pressure" on it in a bid to meet the above-said purposes.

The U.S. fabrication of domestic act does not mean space will belong to the U.S.

Vast space has no border and space will remain common property of humankind forever.

The DPRK will exercise its right to space development with dignity no matter what the U.S. may say about it.

The U.S. has to stop encroaching upon sovereignty by finding fault with the DPRK's satellite launch for peaceful purposes.
