South Korea drew for the Northern “red line”

Moon Jae-In

The President of South Korea, moon Jae-In said, where is the line beyond which the relations of Seoul and Pyongyang will change dramatically. His words are quoted by Reuters.

“I can assume that North Korea crosses the “red line” if they launch their Intercontinental ballistic missiles and will be placed on nuclear warheads,” — said the South Korean leader on a press-conferences following the results of first hundred days of his reign.

Earlier, the moon has repeatedly urged Pyongyang “not to cross “red lines” are,” but never explained what he meant.

Relations between the two Koreas remain virtually frozen amid heightened tensions caused by a series of nuclear and missile tests by Pyongyang.

On 5 August the UN security Council passed a resolution toughening sanctions against the DPRK. The proposal to introduce a new restriction against North Korea was made by the United States. In Washington explained this response to the launches of Intercontinental ballistic missiles by Pyongyang.

On July 29, the DPRK confirmed the launch of a ballistic missile “And 14”. KCNA said the test posed no threat to neighboring countries, however, is “a stern warning for the United States.” July 4, Russia and China issued a joint initiative of proposing to the DPRK to declare a moratorium on nuclear tests and missile launches, and South Korea and the United States to refrain from conducting large-scale military exercises in the region. Washington’s offer was ignored.
