Pyongyang, January 13 (KCNA) — Kim Yo Jong, vice department director of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea, made public the following press statement “Pipe dream can never change the current situation of the DPRK-ROK relations” on January 13:

I saw the ROK Ministry of Unification commenting on my statement on Tuesday. It said that there exists room for “communication” and “detente”.

What a poor one it is.

In conclusion, it has already gone wrong in their expectation.

As far as Seoul’s various hope-filled wild dreams called “repair of DPRK-ROK relations” are concerned, they all can never come true.

The chief executive is so busy with his solicitation diplomacy abroad and the authorities are going so earnest to pretend that they are to show goodwill, harboring a daydream. But the present address of the DPRK-ROK relations can never change.

Actually, the ROK has committed a grave provocation by infringing upon the sovereignty of the DPRK recently.

This is just the deed done by the enemy only.

I make it clear once again to the hooligans of the enemy state.

The Seoul authorities should admit and apologize for having violated the sovereignty of the DPRK and take a measure for preventing reoccurrence.

They should not forget that if such provocation of encroaching upon the inviolable sovereignty of the DPRK is repeated, they will be forced to pay the price they cannot deal with.

This is not a mere rhetorical threat or extension of a wordy war.

Our reaction to the infringement on sovereignty and our will to defend the sovereignty will not be confined to the proportional response or announcement of our position.
