[Asia Economy Reporter Baek Kyunghwan] The Presidential Office announced that it will devise measures within the term to practically neutralize the threat of North Korea's nuclear missiles centered on the "3-axis system" in response to North Korea's missile provocations.


On the 8th, Shin In-ho, the 2nd Deputy Director of the National Security Office of the Presidential Office, attended a ruling party-government council held at the National Assembly to review the national security situation, stating, "The Presidential Office and the National Security Office, centered on President Yoon Seok-yeol and the National Security Council (NSC), are fully prepared to respond to any provocations from North Korea."


In particular, Deputy Director Shin emphasized, "The Yoon Seok-yeol administration will take different measures from the previous administration, which only held meetings without taking any practical actions." He added, "We will clearly demonstrate what capabilities and postures we have to counter North Korea's threats," and pledged, "We will devise fundamental measures to practically neutralize the North Korean nuclear and missile threats within the term."



Regarding North Korea, he urged, "We call on them to come to the dialogue table as soon as possible to establish peace on the Korean Peninsula and focus on the livelihood of North Korean residents." Deputy Director Shin also added, "The National Security Office will devote all efforts to expanding extended deterrence capabilities based on the strong ROK-US alliance while preparing measures to eliminate the root causes of the threat."
