DPRK Will Smash U.S. Sanctions Strategy by Dint of Self-reliance, Self-development

Pyongyang, August 15 (KCNA) -- The U.S. assertion that economic sanctions against are needed as its ICBM test-launch "poses threat to international peace and security" is nothing but sophism to cover up its vicious scheme for stifling the DPRK and justify its criminal moves.

Minju Joson in a commentary Tuesday says this.

The DPRK's strategic weapons can never be incriminated in any case as they are powerful self-defensive means to defend the sovereignty of the country and the security of the people from the U.S. persistent hostile policy and threat of aggression, the commentary notes, and goes on:

The U.S. is making desperate efforts to establish an international cooperation system against the DPRK after describing its legitimate ICBM test-launch as "threat" and "provocation" in a far-fetched way. This is no more than an expression of the despair and feelings of frustration from its totally bankrupt hostile policy toward the DPRK and last-ditch efforts of those seeking to get rid of the abyss of ruin.

The U.S. is seriously mistaken if it thinks that the DPRK, which emerged a nuclear power of Juche, the world's military power with everything in need, under the worst adversity, would put the precious nuclear deterrent for self-defense gained by it with blood on the negotiating table and regard it as bargaining chip.

The U.S. and other hostile forces' sanctions racket against the DPRK are making the DPRK accelerate the Juche-orientation of its national economy at the faster speed and harden the faith that the only way out is to keep the spirit of self-reliance and self-development.

The DPRK will as ever foil the U.S. sanctions strategy by dint of self-reliance and self-development and dash ahead like the wind at the speed of Mallima to build a socialist power. -0-
