North Korea Threatens to Abandon 1953 Armistice

A North Korean military representative at Panmunjom framed US pressure as leading to a crossroads of war or peace, saying unilateral action by the Korean People’s Army cannot preserve the cease-fire. The regime has long called the armistice a dead document, though the war ended with an armistice, not a peace treaty.
