The Switzerland-Korea Committee and the Swiss Group for the Study of the Juche Idea said this in a joint statement on August 18.

Expressing full support to a statement released by the spokesman for the General Staff of the Korean People's Army and a statement issued by the spokesman for the DPRK Foreign Ministry, the joint statement said:

There is a limit to the patience of socialist Korea.

The iron-willed Songun treasured sword of the revolutionary armed forces of Mt. Paektu will find out all bases of aggressors in the world and reduce them to ashes.

There is no place on the earth where the U.S. imperialists can hide.

Stop at once the criminal Ulji Freedom Guardian joint military exercises.

The U.S., hands off Korea.

The U.S. imperialists, pull out of south Korea at once.
