North Korea said Tuesday the United Nations has declared war on the Communist country by imposing sanctions in response to its nuclear weapon test.
The Foreign Ministry issued a statement on the official Korean Central News Agency saying Pyongyang would like "peace but is not afraid of war," and the UN Security Council "resolution cannot be construed otherwise than a declaration of a war."
The ministry described the sanctions as "a product of the U.S. hostile policy toward" North Korea.
North Korea threatened to take serious action against any person that uses the UN resolution to impinge upon its sovereignty, saying in the statement North Korea "will deal merciless blows at him through strong actions."
