N. Korea says U.N. sanctions point to war
North Korea Sunday said the U.N. Security Council resolution sanctioning Pyongyang for its recent missile tests was a prelude to a new Korean war.
"The vicious hostile policy of the United States toward (North Korea) and the irresponsibility of the U.N. Security Council have created an extremely dangerous situation on the Korean Peninsula," North Korea's Foreign Ministry said in a statement carried by the official Korean Central News Agency and monitored by the Kyodo News Agency.
The statement said North Korea would not be bound to the resolution "in the least," would "bolster its war deterrent for self-defense" and would have no option "but to take stronger physical actions should someone take issue with our army's training of missile launches for self-defense," the Kyodo News Agency said.
