朝鮮威脅將南北雙方設立的邊境工業園區劃爲軍事區

Rising tensions on the Korean peninsula are jeopardizing a joint industrial project that has served as one of the few remaining symbols of reconciliation between Seoul and Pyongyang.

North Korea has warned the South it will abandon the Kaesong Industrial Complex and turn the border area back into a military zone if Seoul follows through on its pledge to tighten inspections there.

Earlier this week, Seoul's Unification Ministry said it would more closely monitor industrial parts and other cargo shipped into the facility, as a result of expanded U.N. sanctions against Pyongyang following a banned November rocket launch.

North Korean has reacted angrily to the sanctions, promising to launch more missiles and conduct another nuclear test, which is expected to take place in just days.朝鮮半島緊張局勢升級，對南北雙方的一個合資工業項目構成威脅，這一項目是首爾與平壤和解的現存幾個象徵之一。

朝鮮警告韓國說，如果首爾堅持誓言要加緊對開城工業園區的檢查，平壤就將放棄這一項目，並把那一邊境地區劃爲軍事區。

韓國統一部本星期早些時候說，由於聯合國針對平壤去年11月發射被禁的火箭而擴大對朝鮮的制裁，韓國將更密切地監督進入開城工業園區的工業零部件和其他貨物。

朝鮮對聯合國的制裁做出憤怒反應，誓言將發射更多火箭以及再次進行核試驗，預計平壤將在幾天內進行核試驗。
