The statement accused the US of forcibly linking North Korea to the attack -- that led to a huge outcry worldwide -- to incite the international community against the North Korean regime, state-owned KCNA agency reported.
"The US, a source of all social evils and a state of global cyber-crimes, is unreasonably accusing the DPRK (North Korea) without any forensic evidence," the statement said.
It also distanced North Korea from the attack and called it a "grave political provocation".
Earlier this week, White House Homeland Security Adviser Tom Bossert had blamed Pyongyang for the WannaCry cyber attack, claiming the accusations were based on inputs by US and foreign intelligence agencies.
