The Only Weapon to Ensure Peace and Security is an Actual Deterrent

On August 25, Deputy Representative of the People’s Republic of China to the UN, at a meeting held in the United Nations, denounced the U.S.-south Korea joint military drill as a root cause of escalating tension on the Korean peninsula.

As it is already known, the United States and south Korea, despite the unanimous opposition at home and abroad, defiantly went ahead with their joint military drill, fueling up the instability of the situation.

The U.S.-south Korea military drill, which was divided into an “exercise of the staff for crisis control” from August 10 to 13 and a “combined command exercise” from August 16 to 26, is the most vivid expression of the U.S. hostile policy against the DPRK which is aimed at stifling our state by means of force.

Through the U.S.-south Korea aggressive war drill this time, we could feel keenly once again the need to continue bolstering the national defensive power and preemptive strike capabilities which can strongly contain and eliminate the outside threats.

Meanwhile, international society clearly understood the fact that it is none other than the U.S. which is responsible for destroying peace and stability in the region and that its aggressive nature will never change.

The U.S. openly conducted all too dangerous war drill levelling at us in collusion with south Korea. Thus it can’t evade its fate to be faced with a much more serious threats to its security.

We will stand face to face with the hostile forces, on the principle of power for power, who are running amuck outrageously, and will continuously build up the strongest war deterrent, in order to overpower an ever-worsening military threats from the U.S. and to bring about the era of genuine peace free from war forever.
