They also confirmed a plan to introduce Global Hawk and are contemplating purchasing German-made air to ground missiles.

Rodong Sinmun Tuesday says in a commentary in this regard:

This is a premeditated move for carrying out the "tailored deterrence strategy." It is a reckless action to escalate the arms race and the danger of a nuclear war on the Korean Peninsula and in Northeast Asia.

They are paying lip-service to "confidence" and "dialogue" but, in actuality, are pursuing confrontation and war between the north and the south.

It is the U.S. scenario to use the puppet warmongers as a shock brigade and servants for igniting a war against the north and carrying out its strategy to dominate the Asia-Pacific region.

This being a hard reality, the puppet forces are bringing the dark clouds of a nuclear war to hang over the heads of Koreans, going reckless to realize their ambition for invading the north, backed by the U.S.

They are sadly mistaken if they calculate they can do harm to the DPRK in collusion with their master U.S.

Only a bitter defeat and shameless destruction await the puppet warmongers as they run riot like a puppy knowing no fear of a tiger, while pinning hope on the tightened "alliance" with outside forces for invasion of the north and preemptive strike at it.
