외교부 "동창리 동향 우려…北 현명한 판단하길"
Seoul urged Pyeongyang to act prudently... after pictures showed construction work at one of the regime's missile test sites.
The foreign ministry expressed concerns about the apparent renovations at the Sohae Satellite Launching Station in Dongchang-ri, a site previously used to test engines for ICBMs.
During a press conference, the ministry's spokeperson said the South Korean government has been closely watching Dongchang-ri, even before the Kim-Trump summit in Hanoi.
He highlighted that South Korea has been taking part in negotiations with Pyeongyang and Washington about complete denuclearization.
When asked whether Seoul is playing mediator, he said the role, rather, is of a "facilitator."
