North Korean Leader Kim Jong Un's Sister Threatens Military Action Against South Korea



DW: Kim Jong Un's sister threatens military action against South Korea

North Korea's army will "surely" take action against South Korea amid failing ties, said Kim Yo Jong, the sister of the North Korean leader Kim Jong Un. She has been taking on an increasingly prominent role in Pyongyang.

Kim Yo Jong, the sister of North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un, on Saturday slammed South Korea as "the enemy" and said Seoul would soon witness the collapse of a "useless" liaison office in the border town of Kaesong.

"By exercising my power authorized by the supreme leader, our party and the state, I gave an instruction to the arms of the department in charge of the affairs with enemy to decisively carry out the next action,'' she said in a statement, without providing details,

"Our army, too, will determine something for cooling down our people's resentment and surely carry out it, I believe," she added.

The North Korean politician also said she felt it was "high time to break with the South Korean authorities" in a likely reference to previous threats of cutting all ties with the Seoul government.
