North Korea on Thursday condemned a recent United Nations resolution on human rights violations in the country, calling it a "grave political provocation." The reaction came after the Geneva-based U.N. Human Rights Council adopted its annual resolution on Pyongyang's human rights by consensus Monday at its 61st regular session, co-sponsored by 50 countries, including South Korea. "(Our) foreign ministry regards the act of adopting a human rights resolution against our republic as a grave political provocation against our national dignity and sovereignty and condemns it with the strongest language," the ministry spokesperson said in a statement carried by the Korean Central News Agency.
