N. Korea considers severing relations with S. Korea

SEOUL, Oct. 16 (Yonhap) -- North Korea threatened to cut off all inter-Korean ties, citing the new conservative South Korean government's "hostile policy" towards Pyongyang.

The Rodong Sinmun, published by the North's ruling Workers' Party, said in a
commentary that the Lee Myung-bak administration is "trampling down" the two
historic summit agreements between the Koreas in pursuit of confrontation and war
with the North.
"If the horde of traitors continue to mar our dignity despite continued warnings,
we will have no choice but to make important decisions, including
across-the-board severance of North-South Korean ties," the newspaper said.
