"We shall never take a ransom from Korean ships, we shall burn them and kill their crew. We shall redouble our efforts. Korea has put itself in trouble by killing my colleagues," a pirate who identified himself as Mohamed told Reuters by phone. Li Jie, a researcher at the Naval Research Institute in the People's Liberation Army navy, told the Global Times Sunday that South Korean President Lee Myung-bak wants to save his legacy by rescuing the hostages from the pirates, as he has faced domestic criticism of being soft. "Revenge from the pirates was definitely taken into account before Seoul made the decision to fight back," Li said. "They have weighed the pros and cons." Agencies - Global Times |
