The Korean Central News Agency released a commentary titled "What Suggests Japan's Routine Missile Launching Drills in Its Proper?".
The commentary said Japan plans to conduct the surface-to-ship missile launching drill of the Ground "Self-Defence Force" in its country from around June this year, and continued:
This proves that Japan has broken the precedent whereby it had mastered the capability of conducting a war of aggression by waging missile launching drill abroad under the signboard of "exclusive defence" which has so far existed for mere form's sake, and that it has embarked upon the practical action for launching a direct attack from the archipelago where huge missile forces are deployed.
Japan's possession of the "capability of attacking enemy base" is already beyond the scope of the discussion and most of its missiles are at the level that can reach the territories of the neighbouring countries.
The Japanese militarists are also putting spurs to reorganizing and reinforcing of the "Self-Defence Forces" as the attack-type aggression forces to keep up with the development and introduction of long-range strike means. What should not be overlooked is that the Japanese reactionaries are openly asserting that they will independently make decision on the strike at neighbouring countries and the time for it when necessary.
The ultimate aim of Japan which has dashed toward militarism is to prepare the archipelago into a state capable of fighting war and thus launch a continental invasion as in the past. It is the cunning intention of Japan to launch a surprise preemptive attack on the neighbouring countries while routinely conducting the drills of long-range strike means in its country under the absurd pretext of "security environment getting serious".
The countries in the Asia-Pacific region are paying a strict attention to the military moves of Japan, a war criminal state, which is not abandoning its nonsensical ambition for the "Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere". Japan should not be mistaken as it has unhesitatingly taken up the position for preemptive attack, the commentary added.
