However, North Korea's foreign minister said the North had "every right" to shoot down American warplanes even outside of its airspace.
然而，朝鲜外相李勇浩表示，即使其不在领空内，朝鲜也有权击落美国战机。
Foreign Minister Ri Yong Ho spoke to reporters in New York on Monday after a meeting at the United Nations.
周一，李勇浩在纽约联合国会议结束后对记者作出上述表示。
Ri's comment followed Saturday's flight of American B-1B bombers and fighter jets in international airspace to the line separating North and South Korea.

他指出，该视频是为了显示朝鲜有能力反击美军。
North Korea, however, has fired on American aircrafts before.

In 1969, North Korea's fighters shot down an American surveillance plane killing all 31 aboard.

On Tuesday, South Korean media reported that North Korea has moved warplanes and strengthened defenses on its eastern coast.
周二，韩国媒体报道称，朝鲜调整了战机部署并加强了东海岸的防御力度。

Du Hyeongn Cha is a visiting scholar at the Asan Institute for Policy Studies in Seoul.
都亨澈（Du Hyeongn Cha）是首尔峨山政策研究所的访问学者。
He told AP that, "The most obvious reason Ri made those comments was because North Korea simply can't tolerate such high-profile insults to its supreme leadership."
他对美联社表示：“李勇浩作出如此表态最明显原因是，朝鲜无法容忍美国如此高调地挑衅其最高领导人。”
He said the foreign minister's comments also provide an opportunity for China and Russia to again call for limits on military exercises in the area.
他指出，李勇浩的言论也为中俄两国再次呼吁限制在朝鲜进行军事演习提供了契机。
The two countries would like North Korea to freeze weapons tests in return for a suspension of U.S.-South Korean military exercises.
