Pyongyang, November 29 (KCNA) -- Upon receiving the statement of the DPRK government on the successful test-fire of new-type ICBM Hwasong-15 on Wednesday, the whole country is seized with great joy.

Kim Song Hyok, an officer of the Korean People's Army, told KCNA:

The successful test-fire of ICBM Hwasong-15 is a proud victory brought about by the Workers' Party of Korea's line of simultaneously pushing forward the economic construction and the building of nuclear force.

It is a great auspicious event that demonstrated the inexhaustible might of Juche Korea and dealt a telling blow to the U.S.

Every Juche weapon we developed despite of vicious challenge and sanction of the U.S. imperialists is a treasured sword of justice for defending the country and the people and mercilessly destroying the invaders.

Today's event, which declared the accomplishment of the great historic cause of completing the state nuclear force, the cause of building a rocket power, will abide long in the history of building a powerful socialist country.

Ko Sung Il, a KPA officer, said that the successful test-fire of new-type ICBM is another signal victory won by the DPRK in the confrontation with the U.S., adding:

I seem to see old lunatic Trump and those riff-raffs making a great fuss, daunted by our new "gift package".

There is a saying "Sow the wind and reap the whirlwind".

The more desperate the old lunatic remains in such provocations as re-listing the DPRK as a "sponsor of terrorism", the stronger self-defensive countermeasure of the DPRK they will meet.

The U.S. should bear in mind that no force on earth can check the advance of the DPRK and the revolutionary armed forces of the DPRK will show no mercy to the invaders. -0-
