North Korean state media blasts Park Geun Hye’s European visit

South Korean President Park Geun Hye was in Germany last week where she met with Chancellor Angela Merkel and later gave a speech concerning her vision for unification with North Korea.

“Germany and Korea have a special relationship through the painful experience of division,” Park said at a joint news conference with Merkel. “Germany is an example and a model for a peaceful reunification of our own country.”

The North Korean state media, the KCNA, laid into the South Korean leader calling her remarks “reckless” and “babble”.

Stating that Park’s foolish behavior has brought disgrace to the Korean nation, they write, “Park Geun Hye, ill-famed as chatterbox, has made a string of seductive remarks, while being puffed up with self-importance. Her behavior reminds everyone of a spinster wandering to hunt for a “political husband”.”

The KCNA supposedly quotes a Pyongyang woman as saying, “It was not long ago that being an ignoramus, Park Geun Hye made a foolish speech, written by her aides, on the DPRK’s nuclear issue while visiting Netherlands, only to expose herself to public disgrace.

“In Dresden of Germany this time, she mentioned her “three-point proposal toward the north” as if she was taking pains to ensure “peaceful unification”, but it became a laughing-stock.

“As a woman, I feel sorry to see Park behaving like a babbling countrywoman rather than a “president” wherever she goes.”

What she does reminds people of a childish girl or a slow-witted person who does not know to act her age.

It is ridiculous for Park to care about others’ economic situation with south Korea faced with economic collapse and destitution.

The slams on the South Korean leader were not taken well in Seoul.
