A few days afterward, the traitor visited Norway and held a joint briefing where he let loose a spate of provocative vituperation that only the "military way will not help solve the problem", while pulling up the DPRK over issues of "denuclearization and improvement of human rights".

Rodong Sinmun Monday says in a bylined commentary in this regard:

This is the last-ditch act of those who are in dilemma owing to the total bankruptcy of their confrontation policy.

Traitor Lee Myung Bak has relied on outside forces to put a brake on the DPRK's efforts for bolstering up its nuclear deterrent for self-defense. This is just a ridiculous act.

The nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula was produced as the U.S. shipped nuclear weapons into south Korea and posed a threat to the DPRK with nukes.

The U.S. and the south Korean puppet forces are becoming all the more reckless in their moves to invade the DPRK.

It is entirely just that the DPRK bolstered the nuclear deterrent for self-defense under the uplifted banner of Songun to cope with the prevailing situation and no one can find fault with it.

If the U.S. and the south Korean puppet forces persist in their hostile acts for provocation and aggression aimed at the DPRK, its nuclear deterrent for self-defense will be further modernized and expanded.

No one will lend an ear to the rubbish of lunatic Lee Myung Bak whose days are numbered.

He had better stop his absurd wordplay and get ready for his death.
