North Korea compared President Barack Obama to a monkey, and blamed him today for internet blackouts as well as the US release of The Interview film this week, that depicts an assassination of dictator Kim Jong Un.
“Obama always goes reckless in words and deeds like a monkey in a tropical forest,” said an unidentified spokesman at the National Defence Commission in a statement reported by the official Korean Central News Agency.
The country led by Kim Jong Un has denied involvement in a cyber attack on Sony Pictures, after the controversial film was screened yesterday, but has expressed fury over Obama criticizing the company’s decision to pull the movie amid threats of terror made against cinemas.
