North Korea said it is a “pipe dream” for the United States to think it will give up nuclear weapons, adding that the latest UN sanctions were an “act of war” against their sovereignty.

The statement was carried by the North’s official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), an official mouthpiece of the Pyongyang regime, as reported by The Associated Press.
