North Korea condemns joint military exercise by South Korea, US, Japan Last Updated : 30 Jun 2024 01:08:07 PM IST North Korea condemns joint military exercise by South Korea, US, Japan North Korea vowed Sunday to take "offensive and overwhelming countermeasures" to protect its sovereignty as it condemned South Korea, the US and Japan for their recent joint military exercises.
The move came amid a growing North Korea-Russia alignment after Russian President Vladimir Putin and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un signed a "comprehensive strategic partnership" treaty that calls for providing military assistance to each other without delay if either side comes under an armed attack, Yonhap news agency reported.
