The statement strongly denounced the provocation made by the south Korean puppet authorities in the territorial waters of the DPRK.

The Swedish National Committee for the Study of the Juche Idea fully supports the self-defensive measures taken by the KPA to beat back the aggression moves of the provocateurs and defend the country, it said.

The Brazilian Committee for Solidarity with the DPRK, too, in its statement on Nov. 24 extended full support to the Korean people who are responding to the military provocation being made by the U.S. imperialists and the south Korean puppet forces in the West Sea of Korea with the drive to build a thriving nation under the banner of Songun.

The DPRK which has great and heroic people will only win in the showdown with the imperialists, amid the support from the world progressive people, it stressed.
