South Korea's foreign ministry1 on Tuesday warned of unbearable2 retaliations against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK)'s nuclear threats.
韩国外交部周二发出警告，朝鲜的核威胁将会招致难以承受的报复。
Foreign Ministry spokesman Cho June-hyuk told a regular press briefing that if Pyongyang conducts any other
provocation3, the DPRK will face the international community's relations it can no longer endure.
Cho said top DPRK leader Kim Jong Un recently ordered continued nuclear tests and a
diversification4 of vehicles capable of delivering nuclear weapons, noting that such orders were
provocative5 words.
South Korea and the international society will never tolerate Kim's comments, which were tantamount to declaring his willingness to continue
provocations6 and
escalate7 threats under a situation that the international community is sternly responding to the latest DPRK provocations, Cho
noted8.
The spokesman added that another DPRK provocation will lead the country to walk a path of destroying itself after facing unbearable retaliations from the international society.
Pyongyang launched a long-range rocket, which was
condemned9 as a disguised test of ballistic missile technology, on Feb. 7 after testing what it claimed was its first hydrogen bomb on Jan. 6.
