The UN Security Council is "turning a blind eye to U.S. nuclear threats to the DPRK," the official KCNA news agency reported.

The DPRK presented a letter to the Security Council late March, calling for holding an urgent meeting on the U.S.-S.Korea annual joint war games code-named "Key Resolve" and "Foal Eagle," which, a spokesperson for the DPRK Foreign Ministry said Saturday, was ignored by the Security Council.
