The British Association for the Study of Songun Policy, the British Group for the Study of the Juche Idea and the Korean Friendship Association UK said in their joint statement that the joint military drills were not the "annual" and "defensive" ones as claimed by the U.S. and the south Korean authorities but the ones aimed at invading the DPRK, demanding they roll back the plan for the military exercises posing a serious threat to the sovereignty of the DPRK and the regional peace.

The Swiss preparatory committee for Gathering 2017-Praise to the Great Persons of Mt Paektu, the Switzerland-Korea Committee and the Swiss Group for the Study of the Juche Idea said in their joint statement that the above-said military games are the largest-ever ones, adding:

Through the war exercises the U.S. imperialists and the south Korean puppet forces are going to get themselves ready for a war against the DPRK, the fortress of socialism and independence, regarding it as a thorn in their flesh.

These criminal war drills for aggression are a clear proof that the Trump administration has no intent to roll back the hostile policy towards the DPRK and improve the relations with the DPRK.

However, the present administration, also, will be made to have a bitter experience that it can never provoke socialist Korea.

The Korean People's Army commanded by Marshal Kim Jong Un, invincible Songun brilliant commander, will thwart the criminal war drills through strong counteraction.
