Regarding the Cheonan incident, President Lee\u2019s Senior Political Affairs Secretary Park Hyung Jun said today, \u201cAccording to the results of the examination, it was obviously caused by an external attack. In this context, it is important for our national security.\u201d <\/p>\n
Speaking on a Peace Broadcasting Company (PBC) radio show, Park added, \u201cThe Cheonan incident is not a simple issue of inter-Korean relations, but an international affair, so the roles of the U.S. and China are important. When the results are released, we will explain them to China in full, so that we can have China play its role in the issue.\u201d <\/p>\n
He added that the U.S., China and South Korea have been discussing the issue through a number of channels for some time. <\/p>\n
Park also talked about the security issue, \u201cTaking this opportunity, we will again initiate an overall security check. After the results come in, we will take measures accordingly.\u201d <\/p>\n
Meanwhile, a military official reported this morning, \u201cWe are checking out whether or not fragments collected around the incident spot are similar to those found in North Korean torpedoes. We have already got a North Korean torpedo.\u201d <\/p>\n
