North Korean state media has published a white paper , in which Pyongyang accuses the president of South Korea, Yoon Suk-yeol, of exposing his country to the danger of nuclear war through his policy towards the North, reported "Reuters", quoted by News.bg.
The document was prepared by the North Korean Institute for the Study of Enemy States and criticized the "reckless remarks" of Yoon on the war, accusing him of abandoning elements of the inter-Korean accord, planning nuclear war with the US and seeking closer ties with Japan and NATO.
State news agency KCNA reports that "the ever-worsening hostilities have led to the paradoxical consequences of North Korea accumulating nuclear weapons at an exponential rate and developing additional nuclear attack capabilities.
In addition, the white paper also lists Yun's domestic political woes, including scandals involving his wife, which have sent his public approval ratings to record lows.
South Korean President Yoon has taken a tough stance against North Korea, which has advanced its arsenal of nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles in defiance of UN Security Council resolutions. His administration accuses North Korea of raising tensions through weapons tests and providing military aid and troops to support Russia's war in Ukraine.
At the start of this year, Pyongyang declared South Korea a "main enemy,", saying reunification was no longer possible.
We recall that last month North Korea blew up sections of inter-Korean roads and railways on its side of the heavily fortified border between the two Koreas, and satellite images show it has since built large trenches across the former crossings.
Also, tensions between the North and the South have risen in recent months over garbage balloons sent by Pyongyang that were responded to by South Korean activists.
Meanwhile, the United States has deployed B-1B bombers for joint air exercises with South Korea and Japan in response to North Korea's recent launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile, according to South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff.
