According to NHK News, the media in North Korea is known for its over-the-top condemnations of both the US and South Korea.

Beijing and Moscow have agreed to the enforcement of tough sanctions on Pyongyang, but they have shown reluctance over a sanctions-centric approach in handling the North Korean issue.
