Kiev, July 14 (IANS) Ukraine has severed diplomatic ties with North Korea for recognising the independence of Ukrainian territories seized by Russia, the countrys foreign ministry said.
In a statement posted on its website on Wednesday, the Ukrainian foreign ministry said it strongly condemns North Koreas decision to recognise the so-called independence of the territories temporarily occupied by the Russian Federation in the Donetsk and Luhansk regions of Ukraine.
We consider this decision as an attempt by Pyongyang to undermine the sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine, a gross violation of the Constitution of Ukraine, the UN Charter and the fundamental norms and principles of the international law, it said.
Ukraines move comes after the Donetsk Peoples Republic (DPR), a quasi-state formed in April 2014 by pro-Russian separatists in the Donetsk region, said it was in discussion with North Korea about Pyongyangs recognition of its independence, Yonhap news agency reported.
Earlier report said the North Korean embassy in Moscow has confirmed the Norths recognition of the independence of both the DPR and Luhansk Peoples Republic, becoming the third country in the world to do so after Russia and Syria.
In response to such an unfriendly act, Ukraine announces the severance of diplomatic relations with the Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea, the Ukrainian foreign ministry said, referring to North Korea by its official name.
It added the countrys political and economic contacts with North Korea had already been suspended due to the international sanctions imposed on Pyongyang.
