Pyongyang-Sana
The DPRK affirmed that it will respond strongly to any US military steps on the Korean Peninsula, stressing that it is not interested in any contact or dialogue with the United States as long as it pursues a hostile policy.
“The military and political situation on the Korean Peninsula and in the region is approaching the line of extreme danger, due to the reckless military confrontation and hostile actions by the United States and its followers, it is once again spreading all kinds of rumors to demonize our country, while intensifying its comprehensive attack in all aspects including the field of human rights and sanctions with its followers.”
"The United States is conducting joint exercises that have been greatly expanded in scope, including the Exercise of Operation of Extended Deterrence Measures and the largest live-fire exercise and simulated use of nuclear weapons with South Korea, thus they are trying to ignite the fuse of all-out confrontation," the spokesperson added.
The spokesman stressed that the statements of the US Secretary of Defense, who was in South Korea, about the use of nuclear weapons against the DPRK, and the deployment of more nuclear fighters and aircraft carriers, reflect the true intentions of the United States, to turn the region into a powder keg.
The spokesman stressed that the DPRK will respond with maximum force to any military attempt by the United States, in accordance with the principle of "nuclear bomb for nuclear bomb and all-out confrontation for all-out confrontation."
The spokesman said that the DPRK has a clear response strategy to deal with any short- and long-term scenarios that the United States is considering and follows, and will resolutely manage current and potential challenges with the use of nuclear force.
"The history of confrontation between the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and the United States over the past decades reminds us that we should only deal with US imperialism by force, the more serious the US threat level facing us develops, the stronger our response will be directly proportional," the spokesperson said. .
The spokesman concluded that the DPRK will responsibly defend peace and security on the Korean Peninsula and the region, relying on strong deterrence until the hostile policy and military threat of the United States are eliminated.
