The statement expressed full support and solidarity with the army and people of the DPRK in their struggle for defending the sovereignty of the country as the U.S. imperialists and the south Korean puppet group are staging ceaseless criminal and provocative war maneuvers targeted against the DPRK.

It termed the "Cheonan" warship case a strategic farce cooked up by the U.S. to justify the madcap moves to invade the DPRK.

The British Association for the Study of Songun Policy, the British Group for the Study of the Juche Idea and the British Branch of the Korean Friendship Association also made public a similar joint statement on Aug. 4.
