Will protest if true Foreign Ministry response
[From Gyeongseong (Seoul) 17th UP / Kyodo] Korean Interior Minister Baek Han Seong declared on the 17th that "The Korea Coast Guard has dispatched a unit to be stationed on Takeshima in order to protect the islands from Japanese invasion". According to Minister Baek's claim, the measure to dispatch stationed troops to Takeshima has been taken because the Korea Coast Guard has too few vessels at its disposal and is unable to guard the islands effectively.
