Spokesman for Ministry of National Defence of DPRK Issues Press Statement

Date: 05/03/2024 | Source: Naenara (En) | Read original version at source

A spokesman for the Ministry of National Defence of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea released the following press statement on March 4 :

The US and the ROK kicked off again the provocative large-scale joint military drills to increase uncertainty in the situation in the area of the armistice state.

The drills included a plan for field manoeuvres which doubled as against last year and even the armed forces of 11 satellite countries under the so-called “UN Command” without any justification for existence were mobilized.

The frantic war drills by the ROK puppets and vassal forces led by the US make a clear contrast with the reality of the DPRK that has mobilized large-scale military forces into economic construction for the promotion of the people’s wellbeing. This reconfirms the source of regional instability and points to who is threatening the mankind with nukes.

The large-scale war drills staged by the world’s number one nuclear weapons state and more than 10 satellite states against a state in the Korean peninsula where a nuclear war may be ignited even with a spark, can never be called “defensive.”

The Ministry of National Defence of the DPRK strongly denounces the reckless military drills of the US and the ROK which are getting more undisguised in their military threat to a sovereign state and attempt for invading it and severely warns them to stop the moves further causing provocation and instability.

The armed forces of the DPRK will continue to watch the adventurist acts of the enemies and conduct responsible military activities to strongly control the unstable security environment on the Korean peninsula.

The US and the ROK will be made to pay a dear price for their false choice while suffering the consequent security uneasiness every moment at serious levels.
