London, July 5 (ANI): Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) has issued a commentary accusing South Korea of joining the Proliferation Security Initiative (PSI) interception exercise on the sea.

According to English.news.cn, the article said such a military maneuver would push the situation on the Korean Peninsula to the edge of 'a nuclear war', disturbing peace and stability in Northeast Asia.

The article also stated that the exercises were a joint military operation between the United States and South Korea aimed at preparing for an aggressive war against the DPRK.
