Japan Should Face up to Trend of Times: KCNA Commentary

Date: 26/01/2021 | Source: KCNA.kp (En) | Read original version at source

Pyongyang, January 26 (KCNA) -- Japan's bad habit of committing mischievous acts and finding fault with others has surfaced again since the outset of this year.

Recently, Japan's Minister of Defense Kishi said that "Japan is doing its best to collect and analyze information about the north's military moves."

This is nothing but a scream let out by those in fear of the DPRK's matchless military muscle developing at a world-startling speed.

The DPRK has built up its tremendous military muscle capable of firmly defending socialism, the dignity and life of its people and permanently guaranteeing the peaceful and stable life of the people.

Japan, which has resorted to vicious moves against the DPRK, spying on it all the year round with satellites and various other intelligence means, is again making a fuss, inciting hostility toward the DPRK. Clear is its ulterior motive.

It is because the DPRK's powerful defense capabilities for preemptively containing any hostile forces' threats outside its territory prevent Japan from realizing its wild ambition for continental aggression, and firmly preserve regional peace and security.

Only the Japanese reactionaries and other peace wreckers let out a string of rubbish, feeling very uneasy about the DPRK's measures for bolstering defence capabilities to defend the sovereignty and rights to existence and development of the country.

Japan would be well advised to face up to the trend of the times and behave itself. -0-
