SKorea, US to hold war games after any UN action

None

South Korea will hold military exercises with the United States after any possible UN action against North Korea over its alleged sinking of a South Korean warship, the South's military said Tuesday.

 

Seoul has asked the UN Security Council to punish Pyongyang over the sinking, which killed 46 South Korean sailors on board. North Korea denies involvement and has warned any punishment would trigger war. South Korea "will conduct the drills by linking them to the result" of possible UN Security Council action against the North, said Col. Lee Bung-woo, a spokesman for South Korea's Joint Chiefs of Staff. (AP)
