Officials 'who irresponsibly conducted preparations' for the failed launch were 'bitterly criticized' at a three-day meeting held by North Korea's ruling party, the KCNA state news agency reports.
SEOUL, South Korea – An unusually candid North Korea has said the botched launch of a military satellite last month was the “gravest failure” but it vowed it would soon succeed in its quest, state media reported on Monday, June 19.
The rocket failed “after losing thrust due to the abnormal starting of the second-stage engine,” North Korea said at the time. The North’s state media said the ruling Workers’ Party Central Committee also discussed bolstering nuclear capabilities and stepping up production of nuclear weapons. A spokesperson for South Korea’s Unification Ministry, which handles relations with the North, said the absence of a report of a speech by Kim was “extremely rare.”
