In response to South Korean military maneuvers, North Korea is further isolating itself from its southern neighbor. From Wednesday, all road and rail connections with South Korea will be cut and the border areas will be fortified, state news agency KCNA reported on Tuesday.
According to the report, the General Staff of the Korean People’s Army justified the move in response to recent South Korean military maneuvers.
The statement describes South Korea as a “primary enemy state and an unchangeable main enemy.” Another reason given was the frequent stationing of US strategic nuclear weapons in the region.
The Korean situation is getting worse
The latest developments in North Korea show an increasing escalation of tensions on the Korean Peninsula. North Korean leader Kim Jong Un has stepped up his missile tests and stepped up his nuclear rhetoric in recent months. At the same time, South Korea and the US have expanded their military cooperation. Pyongyang views the maneuvers as a provocation and training for an invasion.
