Viktor Yegorov, chairman of the Karelia-DPRK Friendship Association of Russia, said:

The Korean Peninsula has become the biggest hotspot in the world due to the nuclear war maneuvers of the U.S. forces and the south Korean army.

It is due exercise of the right to self-defence that the DPRK is mercilessly countering the provocation of the enemies while bolstering nuclear deterrent.

Even though the U.S. ignites a war in Korea, it can never overpower the might of the army and people of the DPRK united in single mind under the Songun leadership of the dear respected Kim Jong Un, and its military capabilities.

The U.S. can not break the will of the DPRK with sanctions and nuclear threats.

Ivan Sluhai, chairman of the Moscow War Veterans Committee, noted:

The DPRK has powerful nuclear and missile strike capabilities to resolutely shatter any provocation move of the U.S. and other hostile forces.

If the U.S. and south Korean authorities ignite a war, the DPRK will mercilessly wipe out the aggressors with its powerful counterstrike.

The chairman extended full support and solidarity to the Korean people in their endeavors to defend the sovereignty of the country and strongly denounced the U.S. and south Korean authorities for their nuclear war maneuvers.
