韩国国防部誓言,如果朝鲜将其有关废除已经存在60年之久的停战协定的威胁付诸实施,韩国方面就要做出“有力而果断”的反应。

金容铉将军星期三说,首尔已经做好准备,如果朝鲜动用军事力量,韩国就将打击“侵略的源头”及其“指挥部”。

星期二,一名朝鲜高层军事官员说,鉴于以美国为首的制裁朝鲜行动以及首尔和华盛顿目前进行的军事演习,平壤将于下星期废除结束韩战的1953年停战协定。

在朝鲜半岛局势紧张时,朝鲜常常会发出这类威胁。但分析人士说,由于最近的这次威胁出自一名高官之口,而且指明最后期限,因此可能更加严重。


South Korea's defense ministry is vowing a "strong and decisive" response if North Korea follows through on its threat to break a 60-year-old armistice.


General Kim Yong-hyun on Wednesday said Seoul is prepared to attack both the "source of the aggression" and its "commanding element" if North Korea uses military force.

On Tuesday, a senior North Korean military official said Pyongyang would next week disregard the 1953 ceasefire that ended the Korean war, citing a U.S.-led drive for sanctions and ongoing military exercises between Seoul and Washington.

It is not unusual for North Korea to issue such threats during times of heightened tension on the Korean peninsula. But analysts say the latest threats may be more serious, because they were made by a high-ranking official, and came with a deadline.
