North Korea's top diplomat has called US President Donald Trump's speech to the UN "the sound of a barking dog".
Speaking to the UN General Assembly, Trump said he would "totally destroy" North Korea if it posed a threat to the US or its allies.
Foreign Minister Ri Yong‑ho's comments were North Korea's first official response to the speech.
The North has continued to develop its nuclear and weapons programmes, in defiance of a UN ban.
Ri told reporters near the UN headquarters in New York: "There is a saying that goes: 'Even when dogs bark, the parade goes on'."
He said that "If [Trump] was thinking about surprising us with the sound of a barking dog then he is clearly dreaming."
