Indonesia's internet newspaper RMOL said that it has become difficult for the U.S. to take any political countermeasure now that the DPRK possesses ICBM.

An article titled "Whole U.S. mainland put in range of strike", posted on the website of the National Committee for the Study of the Juche Idea of DR Congo, said:

The DPRK's great success in the second test-fire of Hwasong-14 has plunged the U.S. into the worst nightmare.

The range of the tested rocket covers the whole U.S. mainland.

What the U.S. politicians fear is not the ICBM capable of striking the whole mainland only.

It is that the DPRK is just a country that has a will to most certainly strike the U.S.

The DPRK is sure to win the final victory in the showdown with the U.S.

Cambodia's state radio and Russia's newspapers and websites, including Zavtra, Komsomolskaya Pravda and Irkutskblogspot. Ru, too, commented on the significance of the DPRK's successful ICBM test in the period from July 14 to August 1.
