North Korea says it will reinstall guard posts and resume military exercises at front-line areas as its rhetoric turns more bellicose.
North Korea said Wednesday that it will send soldiers to now-shuttered inter-Korean cooperation sites in its territory and reinstall guard posts and resume military exercises at front-line areas, nullifying tension-reducing deals reached with South Korea just two years ago.North Korea has taken in what experts believe are calculated moves to apply pressure on Seoul and Washington amid stalled nuclear negotiations.
Though North Korea’s recent actions haven’t led to clashes or bloodshed, it’s still raising animosity on the Korean peninsula to a level unseen since Pyongyang entered nuclear talks in 2018. The North’s General Staff said military units would be deployed to the Diamond Mountain resort and the Kaesong industrial complex, both just north of the heavily fortified border. The two sites, built with South Korean financing, have been closed for years because of inter-Korean disputes and U.S.-led sanctions.
South Korea’s military expressed regret over the North Korean announcement and warned that the North would face unspecified consequences if it violates the 2018 deals. Maj. Gen. Jeon Dong Jin at the Joint Chiefs of Staff told reporters that South Korea maintains military readiness and will strive to prevent military tensions from rising. Vice Unification Minister Suh Ho warned against destroying South Korean assets that remain at the two cooperation sites.
