The U.S. and its followers are making much fuss, creating impression that a nuclear bomb was dropped in downtown Washington or Seoul. They let the UN release a "press statement" and are crying out for applying high-profile sanctions to totally strangle the "windpipe of the north." They went the lengths of threatening to make a preemptive military strike at the DPRK, escalating threat and blackmail against it to the extremes.

Taking the lead in this campaign is the Park Geun Hye group of traitors.

The hearts of the service personnel and people of the DPRK are now burning with hatred for the sworn enemies who are hurting even the supreme leadership of the DPRK which represents their life and dignity, not content with resorting to all kinds of evil things in a bid to deny and undermine the ideology and social system in the DPRK.

Running sky-high now is the resentment of the people of the DPRK at the U.S., architect and executor of the harsh hostile policy toward the DPRK, and Japan and other riff-raffs dancing to the tune of the U.S. and even the UN acting without principle bereft of impartiality and justice.

The DPRK is fully ready to mercilessly strike brutal provocateurs keen on sanctions, actions to stifle it and aggression and war moves against it century after century and wipe them out to the last man any moment, the spokesman said, declaring the stand as follows:

If the U.S. imperialists and their vassal forces show even a slight sign of launching the "beheading operation" for what they call "collapse of social system" and "conquest of Pyongyang", an order will be immediately issued to the Hwasong artillery units of the Strategic Force of the Korean People's Army to fire rockets fully tipped with nuclear warheads although it is not what we desired.

Neither sanctions nor provocation nor pressure can ever bring down the position of the DPRK as a full-fledged nuclear weapons state, and high-handed political and military provocations of the enemies will only invite a merciless nuclear strike which will lead them to a final ruin.

The state nuclear force of the DPRK will creditably perform its sacred mission of defending the dignity of the supreme leadership and the interests of the country and safeguarding the sovereignty and vital rights of the nation and make positive contribution to the peace and stability in Northeast Asia.
