DPRK FM Issues Press Statement

Choe Son Hui, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the DPRK, made the following press statement on November 17, 2022:

I clarify a serious warning stand on the nonsensical remarks of the U.S., Japan and south Korea made at the tripartite summit a few days ago, about the “bolstered offer of extended deterrence” and “strong and resolute counteraction”, asserting the DPRK’s legitimate and just military counteractions as “provocation”, despite the fact that such measures were incited by their own war drills for aggression.

The recent tripartite talks will inevitably bring the situation on the Korean peninsula to such an unpredictable pass.

It is necessary to remind them that even though the U.S. and its followers staged large-scale war drills for aggression one after another, they failed to contain the DPRK’s overwhelming counteraction, but rather resulted in the increased security crisis on their part.

The U.S. “bolstered offer of extended deterrence” and the daily-increasing military activities of the allied forces around the Korean peninsula are imbecile acts that will only bring more serious instability to the U.S. and its allies.

The tighter the U.S. holds on to the “bolstered offer of extended deterrence” to its allies and the more they intensify provocative and bluffing military activities on the Korean peninsula and in the region, the fiercer the DPRK’s military counteraction will be, in direct proportion to it, which will pose a more serious, realistic and inevitable threat to the U.S. and its vassal forces.

The U.S. will realize that it has now taken a gamble for which it will certainly regret.
