U. S. to respond to North Korea’s nuclear law

By Kristina Sobol  

Budrigannews.com – On Friday, the United States and South Korea said that North Korea’s first-use nuclear doctrine, which was revealed earlier this month, was “escalatory and destabilizing.” Washington also said that it would continue to deploy and use strategic assets to stop Pyongyang and respond to it.

After the Extended Deterrence Strategy and Consultation Group (EDSCG) met for the first time since 2018 at the vice ministerial level in Washington, the nations issued a joint statement.

The nations “committed to continue efforts to employ all elements of both countries’ national power to strengthen the Alliance deterrence posture” and “expressed their serious concern over the DPRK’s escalatory and destabilizing messaging related to nuclear weapons use, including its adoption of the new nuclear policy law” were cited in the statement.

The statement said, referring to South Korea and North Korea by their initials, “The United States committed to strengthen coordination with the ROK to continue to deploy and exercise strategic assets in the region in a timely and effective manner to deter and respond to the DPRK and enhance regional security.”

A new law signed by North Korea’s leader Kim Jong Un last week officially established the country’s right to use preemptive nuclear strikes to defend itself. According to the law, North Korea’s nuclear status is “irreversible” and denuclearization talks are prohibited.
