Kim Yo Jong, the sister of North Korean leader Kim
Jong Un,
accuse South Korea of generating tensions in the Korean Peninsula
to divert attention from problems at home.
Tensions between the two Koreas are running high after Pyongyang
signed a mutual defense pact with Russia recently.
Kim Yo Jong also called S Koreas recent firing drills
near the border,
an inexcusable and explicit provocation.
The South Korean military resumed live fire artillery drills near
the western maritime border in late June.
First time since 2018 C OS Unification Ministry handling inter
Korean affairs,
expressed regret over Kim's remarks condemning the South Korean president.
In fact, last month, South Korea said it would suspend
a military agreement signed with North Korea in 2018 aimed
at easing tensions in protest against North Korea's Jat balloon
launches.
