N.K. leader's sister calls Seoul's regret over drone incursion 'sensible'
SEOUL, Feb. 13 (Yonhap) -- The powerful sister of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un has called the South Korean unification minister's expression of regret over the drone incursion into the North "sensible behavior," and demanded steps to prevent such a recurrence.
"I think it fortunate that Chung Dong-young, minister of unification of the ROK, officially expressed regret ... over the case of drone intrusion into the DPRK," Kim Yo-jong was quoted by the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) as saying in a statement. "I appreciate it as quite sensible behavior."
On Tuesday, the minister expressed regret over drones allegedly sent by civilians to the North, saying South Korea seeks "mutual recognition and peaceful coexistence between the two Koreas."
