SEOUL - The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) cannot help stationing its troops in Kaesong if the ongoing working-level talks with the Republic of?Korea(ROK) fail, Pyongyang's top delegate said Thursday.

"Talks are in danger of breakdown," Park Chol-su, the DPRK's top negotiator, told?ROK reporters in Kaesong. "If the fate of the Kaesong industrial zone is shattered in this way, military camps cannot help being restored (in Kaesong)."

The DPRK delegation handed out to?ROK's reporters the copies of its draft agreement that it proposed during the talks.
