SEOUL, Sept. 7 (Yonhap) -- The North Korean defense minister strongly denounced the Freedom Edge exercise involving South Korea, the United States and Japan currently under way, vowing to take "reflective countermeasures," Pyongyang's official media outlet reported Monday.
North Korean Defense Minister Kim Song-gi released the statement through the Korean Central News Agency, noting the exercise poses a security threat that pushes the "instability on the Korean peninsula and beyond the region to the limit."
"If the U.S. and its allies attempt to provoke a new military confrontation with the DPRK, the latter will take strong and reflective countermeasures from the standpoint of power," Kim added, using North Korea's official name, the Democratic People's Republic of Korea.
South Korea, the U.S. and Japan began the five-day joint military exercise on the day, proceeding on schedule even as key Seoul-Washington drills were recently scaled back upon U.S. President Donald Trump's order.

首尔，9月7日（韩联社）——据平壤官方媒体周一报道，朝鲜国防部长强烈谴责目前正在进行的韩国、美国和日本参与的“自由边缘”联合军演，并誓言采取“对等反制措施”。
朝鲜国防部长金成基通过朝中社发表声明，指出此次演习构成安全威胁，将“朝鲜半岛乃至整个地区的不稳定推向极限”。
金正恩补充说：“如果美国及其盟友企图挑起与朝鲜民主主义人民共和国的新一轮军事对抗，朝鲜将从实力角度采取强硬而审慎的反制措施。”他使用的是朝鲜的正式国名——朝鲜民主主义人民共和国。
韩国、美国和日本当天开始了为期五天的联合军事演习，尽管最近根据美国总统唐纳德·特朗普的命令缩减了首尔和华盛顿之间的一些重要演习，但演习仍按计划进行。
