North Korea has branded the 2nd Nuclear Security Summit, which is set to take place at COEX in southern Seoul on March 26th and 27th, a \u201csevere provocation\u201d which it \u201cwill not sit idly by\u201d and watch.<\/p>\n
In a statement released by Chosun Central News Agency today in the name of three North Korean organizations including the Asia-Pacific Peace Committee, North Korea asserted, \u201cIt is astonishing that a discussion about nuclear security issues in and of itself would be taking place in South Chosun.\u201d <\/p>\n
Pointing out that the U.S. and South Korea are intending to \u201cmobilize their massive modern nuclear war machine to enforce the \u2018Key Resolve-Foal Eagle\u2019 combined military exercises\u201d immediately before, in the words of the piece, \u201chaving some form of \u2018nuclear security\u2019 this and that even while still able to smell the smoke of the gunpowder\u201d is, it said, \u201cboth ridiculous and offensive.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is yet another intolerable crime which runs counter to the aspirations of an entire nation which hopes for Chosun Peninsula peace and security and the people who love world peace, and should be condemned as an unacceptable, severe provocation which our Republic will not be able to withstand,\u201d the piece concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
