North Korea: America Must Stop Military Threats If Concerned About The Safety Of Its Territory

JAKARTA - North Korea said the United States should stop the military's threats if the country is concerned about its mainland safety.

The KCNA report quoted the head of North US Command as recently commenting on North Korea's intercontinental ballistic missile capability (ICBM) capable of reaching US mainland.

The report said the United States was involved in confrontational behavior such as planning war games with South Korea and sending nuclear submarines to the Korean Peninsula.

"It is North Korea's sovereign right to increase its defense force," the report continued.
