Pyongyang has accused Seoul of escalating border tensions Seoul attributed to deliberately inflating tensions on the border between the two Koreas, a statement from North Korea's military department said. According to the department, Washington's and Seoul's increased military activity increases the risk of a sudden armed conflict, which could lead to disastrous results. Seoul and Washington, according to Pyongyang, are responsible for worsening the situation in the region. Both countries, as they say, seek to achieve military dominance by building alliance networks and conducting joint training under different guises. Seoul sees these maneuvers as increasingly realistic, aimed at pre-emptive strikes, which, in its estimation, pose a serious threat to North Korea. In this context, the department warned of its intention to use stricter response options. They emphasized that any action directed against the state and undermining its security would become a basis for using the powers of its armed forces within the framework of sovereign law. According to the text, North Korea does not intend to impose restrictions on itself in choosing the means to ensure a deterrent system and control the situation in the region. The department also paid special attention to disagreements related to events in the demilitarized zone.
