South Korea unveiled its most powerful ballistic missile and other weapons targeting North Korea during a massive Armed Forces Day ceremony Tuesday, as the South’s president warned the North’s ruling system would collapse if it attempts to use nuclear weapons.
South Korea’s weapons displays and warning against North Korea came after its northern rival recently disclosed its uranium enrichment facility and tested missiles ahead of the US presidential election in November.
“If North Korea attempts to use nuclear weapons, it will face the resolute and overwhelming response of our military and the (South Korea)-US alliance,” President Yoon Suk Yeol told thousands of troops gathered at a military airport near Seoul.
“North Korea must abandon the delusion that nuclear weapons will protect them,” Yoon said, AP reported.
