North Korea warned that denuclearization would not be easy as long as "military hostilities" continue, including the introduction of the latest weapons from South Korea.

A spokesman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs said in a speech published on the website of the Chosun Central News Agency that "there is no change in our position to solve all problems peacefully through dialogue and negotiation, but we are not interested in dialogue with military threats."

A spokesman said the ROK's introduction of the F-35A stealth fighter plane, saying, "Continuous import of high-tech killer equipment is a provocative provocation against the North-South Joint Declaration and the North-South Military Sector Agreement. "It just reveals the hypocrisy and dual behavior of South Korean officials who are talking about trying to reduce it."

"Increasing military hostility by the US and South Korean authorities is undermining the dialogue to build lasting and solid peace on the Korean Peninsula, and it is not a realistic way for us to turn more attention to strengthening physical deterrence. I have to plant it about whether I will. "

"Moreover, the United States has recently launched a medium-range cruise missile and attempted to mass-provoke weapons, including F-35 stealth fighters and F-16V fighters, into Japan and other areas around the Korean Peninsula, with a regional arms race and confrontational atmosphere. "The reality that inspires us is maximizing us."

He warned, "We did not emphasize once or twice that joint military exercises and armed forces for South Korea would be dangerous acts that undermine the peace and stability of the Korean peninsula."

The ROK Air Force plans to power a total of 40 F-35A fighters by 2021, and it was reported that two aircraft arrived at Cheongju Air Force Base the day before. The United States announced that it had launched a ground-launched cruise missile test test in California on the 18th. I did.
The talks came as a representative of the US Department of State's Special Representative to North Korea visited Korea to discuss the situation on the Korean Peninsula and the resumption of negotiations with North Korea.

Thus, the ministry's talk is interpreted to mean that North Korea is willing to talk, but will not return to the table early.

In addition, the resumption of negotiations between North Korea and North Korea seems to be intended to build a justification to discuss North Korea's security concerns, such as the US-ROK military exercises and the introduction of South Korea's new weapons.

The vegan representative met with reporters the other day after meeting with Lee Do-hoon, the head of the DPRK's peace negotiations, and met with reporters, saying, "I am ready to resume working negotiations as soon as I hear from the North Korean counterpart." I emphasized.
