The statement said: I fully support the resolute and patriotic important decision made by the dear respected Marshal Kim Jong Un to defend the dignity and sovereignty of the country and the decision adopted at the March, 2013 plenary meeting of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea and will work hard to put them into practice.

The U.S. imperialists and the south Korean military warmongers' madcap war exercises aimed to ignite a nuclear war against the DPRK has entered the practical step, after going beyond the danger line, the statement said, and went on:

The hostile forces should not misjudge the will of the army and people of the DPRK to annihilate enemies.

We will lose only the Military Demarcation Line and the wall of division from the sacred war of justice and gain national reunification, the lasting peace on the Korean Peninsula and the eternal prosperity of the nation.

Humankind will clearly see how the Korean people united by dint of justice, truth and patriotism win a great victory and how the U.S., empire of evil, and its stooges meet ruin.

We strongly call on all the Koreans at home and abroad to turn out as one in the sacred war to bring without fail the bright day of national reunification after sweeping away the harassers of peace, provocateurs of war and confrontation maniacs from this land.

We are firmly convinced that world progressive people, political parties, organizations and figures of all countries aspiring after independence against imperialism will pay deep attention to the developments on the Korean Peninsula and extend full support and solidarity to the just sacred war of the Korean nation who turned out in the anti-U.S. resistance to defend the peace and security of the world.
