“I’m much more afraid of the United States of America and so are most people in the world,” Galloway said on “Comments,” a talk show he hosts on Iran’s 24-hour English-language News Network.
According to Galloway, the U.S. “trumped” up the current crisis with North Korea and is responsible for the country’s dire economic situation.
“I believe that this is a United States trumped up little crisis,” he said. “They have pushed and pushed North Korea into a corner. The people in North Korea are in very dire straits in terms of standards of food, amount of food and access to oil and other energy resources.”
“Look, I don’t agree with the North Korean political system and I’ve been there. I’ve seen it up close and personal,” he said.
“But there have been achievements in North Korea. They do have a satellite circling the earth. They have built a nuclear power industry even though they suspended it on false promises from President Clinton and other U.S. statesmen. They do have a cohesive, pristine actually, innocent culture. A culture that has not been penetrated by globalization and by Western mores and is very interesting to see”, the British MP added.
“But we here in Britain live where evil also stalks the land in the form of the British government,” he added.
Galloway also compared Kim Jong Un, who presides over the North Korea, to former U.S. President George W. Bush.
“They say the young man who is the leader of North Korea is mad and he can’t be allowed to have nuclear weapons, but George W. Bush was mad and he had thousands of nuclear weapons,” Galloway said.
