SEOUL, December 20. /TASS/. North Korea has warned that it will respond to Japan’s new national security strategy, among other things, by taking measures, a North Korean Foreign Ministry official said in a statement carried by KCNA news agency on Tuesday.

Under the revised Japanese strategy, Tokyo will acquire a counterstrike capability for defense purposes.
