The British Branch of the Korean Friendship Association in its statement on Aug. 8 branded the war exercises kicked off by the U.S. imperialists and the south Korean fascist puppet warmongers as an intolerable provocation and insult to the DPRK.

The U.S. imperialists have become all the more undisguised in the moves to stifle the DPRK, which have reached the danger line, the statement said, calling upon all the friends of Korea and the progressives to render positive support to the DPRK standing on the outpost line of the anti-imperialist struggle and being targeted by guns and nuclear weapons of the U.S. imperialists everyday.

The British Association for the Study of Songun Policy and the British Group for the Study of the Juche Idea in their joint statement on Aug. 13 noted that the Ulji Freedom Guardian war exercises are pushing the situation on the Korean Peninsula to the extreme phase and posing grave threat to the peace in Asia and the rest of the world as they are an extension of the recent military naval exercises conducted by the U.S. and south Korea.

UFG has nothing to do with peace and through it the U.S. imperialists seek to establish the system of the colonial rule in the whole Korean Peninsula and secure their supremacy over the Asia-Pacific region, the statement said.
