Accusing the conservative group of south Korea of trumpeting about "sanctions", groundlessly taking issue even with the preparations made by the DPRK for launching a satellite according to its plan for the space development for peaceful purposes, the spokesman said:

As far as the issue of satellite launch is concerned, it is the DPRK's sovereign right universally recognized which does not allow mere puppets to take issue with it.

The Korean Committee of Space Technology made it clear that the preparations for launching the satellite is part of the work for putting various types of satellites into orbit which has been under way according to the state long-term plan for space development on the basis of shining successes made in the field of satellite launch in the past period.

If they are not sure about whether it will be a satellite or something else, they will come to know when watching what will soar in the air in the days ahead.

As for their loudmouthed "sanctions", "intercepting" and "retaliatory strike," we are ready for everything.

If the puppet warmongers infringe upon our inviolable dignity even a bit by what they called "retaliatory strike" and the like, we will not only punish the provokers but reduce their inter citadel to debris.
