South Korean Unification Minister Kim Yung-ho said the demolition of the unification monument carried out recently by North Korea could create an ideological vacuum or confusion among the elite.
Kim assessed that the move also prompted the North Korean regime to carry out military provocations to create stability.
The statement was made by Kim referring to the recent demolition of North Korea of a monument, which was made to honor the efforts to unify the two Korean countries by the late North Korean leader, Kim Il-sung.
The demolition came after North Korean leader Kim Jong-un called South Korea a "major enemy" and vowed not to seek inter-Korean unification.
Meanwhile, South Korean Unification Minister Kim assessed that the abolition of the unification monument carried out by North Korea could create an ideological vacuum or confusion among the elite, causing the North Korean regime to carry out military provocations to create stability.
"There is a high possibility that the abolition of Kim Il-sung's achievements and (his father) Kim Jong-il, which is a hereditary power base, will create an ideological vacuum or confusion among the elite North Koreans," Kim said as quoted by Yonhap-OANA via Antara, Sunday, February 25.
If an internal conflict occurs, he continued, it will most likely lead to a military provocation to address the crisis.
"Our government considers this situation very serious, and we have prepared thorough action in response, including military precautions," said Kim Yung-ho.
The South Korean Unification Minister also said the removal of images of the Korean Peninsula, which is also a reference symbol for the unification of the two Korean countries, from North Korean broadcasts aims to hinder North Korean people's longing for the people of South Korea.
"This clearly shows that North Korea lost to South Korea in regime competition,” said Kim.
