Lee: Kim Jong-il’s health has significant implications
At a joint briefing with the Secretary of Defense, Minister of Defense Lee Song-hee says (through a translator) that Kim Jong-il is probably enjoying all the attention he’s getting, but it’s true that his health has significant implications, and the United States and Korea are monitoring the situation. They determine that he most likely has control of his administration, he says, and the Korean and United States will do its best to monitor the situation in a stable manner. We will coordinate our responses together as well. (0:56)
