N.K. constitution ‘clearly’ defines S. Korea as ‘hostile’ state: KCNA

North Korea’s constitution clearly defines South Korea as a “hostile” state, Pyongyang’s state media reported Thursday, in the first such mention of what was included in the reclusive state’s recent revision of the basic law.

The Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) touched on the North’s constitution, reporting on the North’s blowing up of roads connected to South Korea.

“This is an inevitable and legitimate measure taken in keeping with the requirement of the DPRK Constitution which clearly defines the ROK as a hostile state, and due to the serious security circumstances running to the unpredictable brink of war owing to the grave political and military provocations of the hostile forces,” KCNA reported in an English-language article.
