The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) on Monday accused the United States of slandering it, saying the U.S. aims to obviate all dialogues including the six-party talks on nuclear disarmament, the official KCNA news agency reported.

The United States has recently labeled the DPRK as "provocative," "aggressive," and a "criminal country," the KCNA quoted a DPRK Foreign Ministry spokesman as saying.

The United States also claimed that the DPRK had nuclear cooperation with Myanmar, said the spokesman.

The spokesman said the United States was aimed at "strengthening its position of savior in South Korea," and covering up its "quandary" on the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula.

The spokesman said the DPRK would hit back at the United States in its own way.
