Original Message
North Korea’s state media outlet KCNA has issued a new series of messages on its news homepage warning of a “great war for national reunification.” The messages come after the North Korean ambassdor to the UN warned Monday that a “spark” could trigger a nuclear war and a South Korean fears of an impending provocation by Pyongyang.
This is not the first time belligerent rhetoric has been used against Seoul, with North Korea threatening to spill seas of blood and destroy imperialist lackeys for many years now. But while many will be familiar with these type of North Korean threats and dismiss them as mere bluster, this latest development comes amid increasing tensions on the Yellow Sea Border – an area which has witness several military incidents over the past few decade.
Of late, North Korean fishing vessels have been crossing the disputed “Northern Limit Line” with increasing frequency in a move that recently resulted in a military response from the South Korean navy. As such, in this context these warnings are particularly worrying.
With presidential elections forthcoming in South Korea, North Korea has made clear several times that it opposes the election of conservative candidate Park Geun-hye, the current front-runner. Drawing attention to the bloody history of her father’s dictatorial role in South Korea and her party’s “confrontational policy,” North Korean media has mentioned the elections some 770 times since April (up nearly five times). Taken in combination with the recent naval tensions, some suggest North Korean may be preparing an imminent provocation as a way of testing the Conservative party and increasing support for the pro-engagement liberal candidates.
