Joint Chiefs of Staff "North Korea condemns illegal provocations...All responsibilities to North Korea"

[Anchor]
The military condemned North Korea's launch of intercontinental ballistic missiles and urged an immediate end to its illegal provocations.

He also repeatedly warned that North Korea is solely responsible for any subsequent developments.

Let's hear the North Korea warning statement issued by the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

[Ahn Chan-myung / Joint Chiefs of Staff Director of Operations: North Korea's long-range ballistic missile launch is a provocative act that clearly violates U.N. Security Council resolutions that prohibit the use of ballistic missile technology and scientific and technological cooperation. The South Korean military condemns the Kim Jong-un regime's illegal and reckless provocations and strongly urges it to immediately stop acts that harm peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula and the international community, such as continuous spraying of dirt and garbage balloons, dispatching bullet-bearing mercenaries to Russia, and preparing for a nuclear test. I once again sternly warn that North Korea is solely responsible for all subsequent events.]
