CPRK Spokesman Denounces U.S.-S. Korea Military Confab against DPRK

Date: 07/10/2013 | Source: KCNA.kp (En) | Read original version at source

Pyongyang, October 7 (KCNA) -- The U.S. and the south Korean top military officials recently held the 45th annual security consultative meeting in Seoul. They adopted a "tailored deterrence strategy" aimed at a preemptive nuclear strike at the DPRK and discussed the issue of extending the period for the transfer of the wartime operational control and the issue of strengthening the capabilities for jointly coping with the DPRK under the pretext of "nuclear and ballistic missile threats" from the DPRK.

    The "tailored deterrence strategy" is a dangerous nuclear war scenario envisaging the preemptive attack on the DPRK with the mobilization of all military means including the nuclear weapons if there is even the slightest sign of the possible use of nuclear weapons and missiles by the DPRK.

    The spokesman for the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of Korea (CPRK) in a statement on Monday denounced the military confab as an extremely serious provocation to scuttle the process for dialogue and peace, escalate tensions and ignite a nuclear war.

    The U.S. is trying to ignite a nuclear war while talking about "sign of the use of nuclear weapons" by the DPRK on the Korean Peninsula, the statement noted, and went on:

    The military confab for aggression has created a touch-and-go situation in which an accidental case or a misjudgment may lead to a nuclear war.

    It is illogical for the Park Geun Hye regime to cry out for "dismantlement of nuclear weapons" and "denuclearization" of the DPRK while openly revealing its scheme for a nuclear war against the DPRK in league with the U.S.

    The U.S. and the puppet regime are trying hard to put political and military pressure on the DPRK, deter the DPRK's offensive for dialogue and peace and escalate the tensions through frantic nuclear war provocation moves and thus attain without fail their aggression purposes. This only heightens the indignation of the army and people of the DPRK.

    Should the U.S. and the puppet forces opt for the provocation of a nuclear war against the DPRK, defying its warnings, it will resolutely counter them.

    The U.S. imperialists and the puppet forces should not run amuck, clearly aware of the spirit of the army and people of the DPRK to annihilate enemies. -0-
