North Korea calls Joe Biden a "rabid dog' that 'must be beaten to death"

Joe Biden "had the temerity to dare slander the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK", said North Korea's KCNA news agency.


SEOUL (AFP) - North Korea has launched a visceral diatribe against United States Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden, calling the former vice-president a "rabid dog" - while also borrowing the terminology of President Donald Trump.

Pyongyang is renowned for its vitriol, but the verbal deluge was unusually ferocious even by its own standards.

Mr Biden "had the temerity to dare slander the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK", the North's official KCNA news agency said late on Thursday (Nov 14), referring to the country by its official name.


"Rabid dogs like Biden can hurt lots of people if they are allowed to run about," it went on. "They must be beaten to death with a stick. Doing so will be beneficial for the US also," it added.
