The first successful H-bomb test made the DPRK proudly join the advanced ranks of the nuclear weapons states possessed of even H-tomb and the dignity and might of the Korean nation have come to shine more brilliantly on the highest level, the statement said, and went on:

The successful H-bomb test is a self-defensive measure to firmly defend the sovereignty of the country and vital rights of the nation and reliably ensure the peace on the Korean Peninsula and regional security from the daily-growing nuclear threat and blackmail of the U.S. and its followers.

No one can take issue with the DPRK over its access to H-bomb for justice.

The headquarters fully support the measure taken by the DPRK.
