U.S. and S. Korean Puppet Forces' Projected Aerial Drill Will Be Followed by Merciless Retaliation: CPRC Spokesman

Pyongyang, December 3 (KCNA) -- A spokesman for the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Country of the DPRK (CPRC) released a statement on Sunday in connection with the fact that the U.S. and the south Korean puppet forces are going to launch the largest-ever joint aerial drill to "totally destroy" the DPRK on Dec. 4.

The statement says:

The U.S. and the south Korean puppet forces are asserting that the planned drill will be "the largest-ever one for blowing up 700 odd primary objects of the north including nuclear facilities and missile bases" and that it will serve as "maximum pressure on the north" as it will be an "unheard-of strike action" involving formations of latest fighter jets called "the king of air battle."

What matters is the fact that the drill simulating an actual war is to be staged at a time when insane President Trump is running wild, terming the DPRK's ICBM test-fire "action never to be pardonable" and bluffing as if he would do "anything in response," stunned by the DPRK's realization of the great historic cause of completing the state nuclear force and the cause of building a rocket power.

The projected war rehearsal is just a grave military provocation which will push the already acute situation on the Korean peninsula to the brink of nuclear war.

The situation clearly proves that the U.S. and the south Korean puppet war maniacs are just aggressors and provocateurs breaking peace and stability on the Korean peninsula and in the region and that the DPRK was entirely just when it decided to invariably take the path of simultaneously developing the two fronts in order to bolster up its war deterrent in every way.

Taking this opportunity, the DPRK cannot but remind the aggressors once again of the statement made by the chairman of the State Affairs Commission of the DPRK on Sept. 21 that the DPRK would seriously consider the taking of a highest-level hard-line countermeasure in history to cope with the U.S. and its vassal forces' reckless moves against the state and people of the DPRK and would surely force them to pay dearly for their provocations.

The U.S. and south Korean puppet military warmongers should bear in mind that their escalating provocation and adding to crimes will only invite more terrible retaliation and precipitate their self-destruction. -0-
