N. Korea warns new U.N. sanctions will void armistice
SEOUL, May 29 (Yonhap) -- North Korea said Friday its second nuclear test, which took place this week, was a self-defense measure in response to the U.N. Security Council's punishment for its April 5 rocket launch, and that any further U.N. sanctions would be tantamount to scrapping the Korean War armistice.
"Should the U.N. Security Council attempt further provocations, our further self-defense measures will be inevitable in response," the North's foreign ministry said in a statement carried by the official Korean Central News Agency.
"Hostile activity by the U.N. Security Council will be tantamount to nullifying the Korean War Armistice Agreement," it said.
