Terming the reckless military maneuvers and sanctions racket of the U.S. and the south Korean puppet forces a military provocation to seriously harass peace on the Korean peninsula and in the region and extremely strain the situation and an open declaration to ignite a nuclear war on this land at any cost, the statement said:

It is the will of the service personnel and people of the DPRK to stage a death-defying resistance to wipe out the aggressors and provocateurs by reacting to their total war with an all-out war and their nuclear war with Korean-style nuclear strikes of annihilation. It is also their resolution to surely win a victory.

Once an order is issued, the agricultural workers of the DPRK will tightly hold the arms for annihilating the enemy and make a clean sweep of the warlike U.S. imperialist and the south Korean puppet forces to throw them into an abyss of ruin.

The U.S. imperialists and the south Korean warmongers should not run riot, being mindful that their foolhardy intrusion into this land being devotedly guarded by the agricultural workers of the DPRK together with the invincible revolutionary Paektusan army with the arms of Songun will lead them to the final doom.
