Pyongyang, October 13 (KCNA) -- The U.S. 5th airborne division, including carrier Ronald Reagan, entered Pusan Port on October 12.

On October 9 and 10, the U.S. staged a "sea interception and anti-piracy drill" targeting the DPRK on the waters off Jeju Island, with the involvement of carrier Ronald Reagan, cruisers Antietam and Robert Smalls, warship of the Japan maritime "Self-Defense Force" Hyuga, an Aegis destroyer and logistic support ship of the south Korean puppet navy.

The U.S. and the south Korean puppets are claiming that the entry of the U.S. carrier Ronald Reagan into the operation base in Pusan is aimed to "increase the regular visibility of the extended deterrence".

It is an undisguised military provocation driving the situation to the irrevocable catastrophic circumstances that the U.S. persists in introducing various nuclear strategic assets into the Korean peninsula where a possibility of constant military collision exists and the danger of outbreak of a nuclear war is rampant.

Moreover, the U.S., together with the south Korean puppets, is operating the nuclear war mechanism called "Nuclear Consultative Group" and pushing forward the nuclear war confab targeting the DPRK at the stage of practice.

In such situation, the introduction of a group of nuclear-powered carriers advertising that they can fight a war into the Korean peninsula goes to prove that the U.S. scheme for nuclear attack on the DPRK and its implementation have reached the most serious phase of systematization and visualization and the outbreak of a nuclear war comes to the fore.

The DPRK has already clarified its corresponding action choice and response direction as regards the fact that the military hysteria of the U.S. and the gangsters of the "Republic of Korea" has gone beyond the red line.

The DPRK's doctrine on the use of nuclear weapons already opened to public allows the execution of necessary action procedures in case a nuclear attack is launched against it or it is judged that the use of nuclear weapons against it is imminent.

The DPRK repeatedly clarified that its armed forces would thoroughly deter and repel the U.S. and its stooges' frantic moves to ignite a nuclear war on the Korean peninsula and thus fulfill in a responsible manner the important mission for defending the national sovereignty, territorial integrity and fundamental interests and ensuring peace and stability in the Korean peninsula and the region.

It is as clear as noonday what result will be brought to the Korean peninsula, where huge armed forces and nuclear weapons are standing in confrontation with one another, even if a spark is produced.

The U.S. should realize that its huge strategic assets have entered the extremely dangerous waters.

The DPRK's most powerful and rapid first strike will be given to the "extended deterrence" means, used by the U.S. to hallucinate its followers, and the bases of evil in the Korean peninsula and its vicinity.

The U.S. will come to keenly realize that such demonstrative actions as the deployment of nuclear strategic assets in the region of south Korean puppets only lead to a disaster of aggravating its distressing and uneasy security crisis, though they may set the group of traitors at ease even a bit. -0-
