Pyongyang slammed Seoul on Wednesday, blaming it for allowing its activists to continue sending anti-North Korean leaflets across the border.
 
The North’s official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) said if the South Korean government had done its part, leaflet activities could have been prevented.  
 
Coming two days after a group of North Korean defectors launched balloons across the border carrying leaflets, the KCNA urged the South to take action against such moves.  

The state-run media said the South's condoning of the leaflet campaign amounts to an active collusion.
 
It added that the leaflet campaign is a challenge to the North’s stand and appeal for improved inter-Korean relations and reunification. Referring to the North Korean leader’s New Year’s address, the KCNA said the latest act by South Korean activists is a move to “obstruct the improvement of North-South relations and spoil an atmosphere of dialogue.”  
 
On January 1, North Korean leader Kim Jong-un expressed willingness to hold inter-Korean talks, saying there is no reason not to hold the "highest-level dialogue" between the two Koreas if conditions are right.
