North Korea also claimed US reconnaissance planes recently violated its air space near the east coast, quoting an unnamed spokesperson of its Ministry of National Defence in a statement carried by the official KCNA news agency.
"There is no guarantee that a shocking incident where a US air force strategic reconnaissance plane is shot down over the East Sea will not happen," the spokesperson said.
Nordkorea hat ein „Vorhaben der USA“ verurteilt, ein mit Atomraketen ausgerüstetes Atom-U-Boot in Gewässer nahe der koreanischen Halbinsel einzuführen. Dies schaffe eine Situation, die einen Atomkonflikt realistischer werden lasse, berichtet die staatliche nordkoreanische Nachrichtenagentur KCNA am Montag.
ReplyDeleteDie Einführung strategischer amerikanischer Atomwaffen auf der koreanischen Halbinsel bedeute, so KCNA, eine ernste Bedrohung des Friedens und eine unverhohlene atomare Erpressung Nordkoreas und anderer Länder in der Region.
North Korea has sent a warning to the United States that it may down US reconnaissance planes in its airspace, according to a spokesman for the DPRK’s Ministry of National Defense.
ReplyDelete"The US will surely have to pay a dear price for its provocative air espionage, frantically staged even invading the opposite side's air space without previous notice. There is no guarantee that such a shocking accident as downing of the US Air Force strategic reconnaissance plane will not happen in the East Sea of Korea (Sea of Japan - TASS)," KCNA quoted him as saying in a statement on Monday.
The North Korean military official pointed to the US strategic reconnaissance planes RC-135, U-2S and reconnaissance drone RQ-4B flying in North Korea’s airspace in turn for eight straight days from July 2 to 9.
