U.S. super-large nuclear carrier groups with nuclear warheads aboard, B-52, B-2 and other strategic bombers, nuclear-powered submarines, guided-missile destroyer groups, F-22 stealth fighters formation and other nuclear strike means are operating against the DPRK. U.S. and south Korean warmongers are busy staging combined landing drill, joint coastal amphibious logistic drill, emergency runway taking-off and landing drill, increasing the danger of their provocations. Commenting on this situation, even foreign media reported that the probability of the outbreak of a war on the Korean Peninsula is 80 percent.

The U.S. and other warmongers do not want detente on the peninsula even a bit but are keen to ignite a nuclear war at any cost.

The increasing military threat and dangerous saber-rattling go to clearly prove who is the arch criminal escalating the tension on the peninsula and bringing a nuclear war disaster to it.

The U.S. has not yet drawn a serious lesson from the failure of its hostile policy toward the DPRK that has lasted for over half a century.

The U.S. started the Korean War to occupy the DPRK in its cradle but sustained a bitter defeat for the first time in its history. It deplored that it fought a war against a wrong rival at a wrong time after the ceasefire in the 1950s. But it is the 21st century.

The DPRK has grown to be a full-fledged nuclear weapons state and acquired tremendous military capabilities including nuclear force.

The U.S. nuclear threat to the DPRK compelled it to bolster its nuclear deterrent. Now that the U.S. is imposing a nuclear war upon the DPRK, while showing off latest nuclear hardware, the latter is left with no option but to cope with it with nuclear weapons.

The DPRK does not want a war but is not afraid of it either.

It is the unshakable principle and strategic line of the DPRK to take hold on nuclear shield for self-defence and thus shatter the U.S. ambition to annex the Korean Peninsula by force of arms and reduce the Korean people to modern type slaves, and firmly protect its idea and social system and the whole wealth of socialism gained at the cost of blood.

The DPRK is fully ready to meet the U.S. political and military challenges and honorably conclude the decades-long confrontation with it.

It will keep to the road chosen by itself as long as there persist the U.S. hostile acts against it.
