The statement said:

A spokesman for the CPRC of the DPRK in a statement urged the U.S. and the south Korean authorities to opt for the right choice.

After the DPRK's successful test-fire of surface-to-surface medium long-range strategic ballistic rocket Hwasong-10, the U.S. does not recognize the reality that the DPRK is a nuclear weapons state possessed of miniaturized, light and diversified nuclear warheads but claims that it was "a breach of the UN resolutions" and "a grave provocation to peace."

The Japanese reactionaries and the pro-U.S. Park Geun Hye's group of traitors in south Korea are chiming in with the U.S. racket.

The U.S. and the south Korean regime should not forget even a moment that they are within the firing range of the DPRK's cutting-edge strike means.

The U.S. should recognize the strategic position of the DPRK.

If the U.S. and the south Korean authorities go foolish, persistently resorting to confrontation and antagonism against the DPRK, they will bring about irretrievable consequences.

On the contrary, if they act with reason, it will help ensure peace in which all countries concerned are interested.

We fully support the above-said statement.
