Summary Seoul wants guarantees Pyongyang won't unilaterally close the Kaesong park again.
SEOUL, South Korea (AP) - Pyongyang has threatened to reposition troops at a stalled inter-Korean factory park at a North Korean border town.
It s a warning Pyongyang has made before and is seen by analysts as an effort to pressure Seoul to quickly agree to reopen a park that provided badly-needed hard currency to Pyongyang before it was shuttered in April amid tension.
Media pool reports say North Koreans issued the warning directly to South Korean reporters after closed-door talks between the Koreas on Thursday. The talks came as North Korea held ceremonies ahead of Saturday s 60th anniversary of the Korean War s end.
