The statement said:

President Kim Il Sung, the great leader of the Korean people, built a new society where all people lead an equal life and carve out their destiny independently.

The ideal society desired by the world oppressed people in distress is being translated into reality in the DPRK under the wise leadership of Marshal Kim Jong Un who is successfully carrying forward the idea and cause of Kim Il Sung and leader Kim Jong Il without an inch of deflection.

The U.S. is forcing sovereign states to be its henchmen while threatening and blackmailing them with its nuclear weapons.

But nuclear threat and blackmail can never work on the Korean people who are valuing their idea and independent dignity more than their lives.

The DPRK will never abandon socialism, and a thousand-fold retaliation strike will be inflicted on the hostile acts of challenging the DPRK.

It is a daydream to try to break the single-minded unity of the leader, party, army and people of the DPRK.
