Pyongyang taunts park
The Democratic People's Republic of Korea taunted Republic of Korea President Park Geun-hye on Thursday over what it called her humiliating US summit trip, saying she had been treated like a "bride dumped by her husband" on their wedding day.
The DPRK chose to focus on the absence of US officials to meet Park when she arrived on the first leg of her visit in New York City.
"What an embarrassing situation for a head of state!" said the ruling party's official newspaper, Rodong Sinmun.
"Park received possibly the most humiliating mistreatment during her much-anticipated visit.
"Park must have flown across the Pacific full of hope, but she ended up looking like a new bride dumped by her husband on her wedding day," it said.
