Hong Kong. April 5. INTERFAX - The DPRK will not strike South Korea first, but if Seoul chooses a "military confrontation", it will be forced to use nuclear forces, said the deputy director of the Department of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, the sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, Kim Ye Jung.
"We will not fire a single bullet or projectile towards South Korea," Yonhap news agency quoted Kim Ye-jung as saying.
"If South Korea chooses a military confrontation with us, our nuclear combat forces will inevitably have to fulfill their duty," she said.
According to her, "if someone does not provoke us, we will never strike before."
