SEOUL (Reuters) –
North Korea warned
South Korea on Wednesday against joining U.S.-led sanctions against Pyongyang and said it would take action after any such move by Seoul.South Korea’s participation in sanctions would be seen as a serious provocation leading to a “crisis of war” on the Korean peninsula, a North Korean spokesman for the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Fatherland said in a statement carried by the official KCNA news agency.
The North issued a similar warning in September before it conducted a nuclear test earlier this month, prompting the
U.N. Security Council to impose financial and arms sanctions on North Korea.
