Pyongyang blasts U.S. over "interference" in inter-Korean ties

File photo taken on Oct. 5, 2019, shows Kwon Jong Gun, director general of the Department of U.S. Affairs of the North Korean Foreign Ministry, in Stockholm. According to North Korea's state-run KCNA, Kwon accused the United States on June 11, 2020, of interfering in inter-Korean relations by expressing disappointment at Pyongyang's recent decision to cut off all lines of communication with South Korean authorities, an action seen as protesting at defectors to the South launching balloons over the boarder containing leaflets critical of the North.
