North Korean Leader Vows to Continue Satellite Launches, Criticizes UN and US

Kim Yo Jong, the sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, says North Korea will continue its attempts to launch spy satellites in response to threats from the US and allies.
Kim Yo Jong criticizes the UN Security Council for serving as a "political appendage" of the US and accuses it of being "discriminative and rude" toward North Korea.
North Korea sees satellite launches as a sovereign right and a legitimate countermeasure against threats from the US and allies.
North Korea threatens not to notify the International Maritime Organization before future satellite launches in protest of the group's condemnation of North Korea's missile tests.
An analyst accuses the International Maritime Organization of following an "anti-North Korea, hostile policy" dictated by the US and its allies.
