North Korean media used South Korean news reports,
Sunday, in attacks on the South's conservative Liberty Korea Party, saying the party is ruining itself and being isolated from peace efforts.
The Rodong Sinmun, the official newspaper of the ruling Workers' Party, citied South Korea's media reports to attack the South's main opposition party, saying it is on the track to "destruction."
"According to Edaily, the party is doing everything it can for survival with 'reform' and 'new faces,' but its situation isn't improving," Rodong said.
In another article, Rodong criticized conservative lawmakers for refusing to ratify the Panmunjeom Declaration, which was signed by President Moon Jae-in and North Korean leader Kim Jong-un on April 27.
North Korean media has been mentioning the Liberty Korea Party more often this year, according to North Korean media tracker KCNA Watch website. The number of articles mentioning the party has increased to 4179 (as of Oct. 7) from 2783 last year, after the party was renamed earlier that year on Feb. 13.
