The DPRK's development of strategic weapons is aimed to protect the country's sovereignty and territorial integrity and its people's peaceful life from the U.S. imperialists' policy of nuclear blackmail and threat and to achieve durable peace and stability in the Korean peninsula and the region, the article notes, and goes on:

The DPRK's building of nuclear force is the most just strategic option to put a definite end to the hostile forces' outrageous pressure, military and politically-motivated blackmails against the DPRK.

The bigger and better the DPRK's nuclear strike capability is, the stronger its muscle for containing the aggressor forces will become. Then, the DPRK will shed its rays as a dignified power no one dares to provoke.

Its ICBM Hwasong-15 will never pose threat to any country or region if they don't violate its interests.

Its nuclear deterrent is just to deal with the U.S. imperialists, the sworn enemy of the Korean people.

No matter what others may say, the mission of its war deterrent for firmly protecting the destiny and sovereignty of the nation and preserve peace and stability in the Korean peninsula and the region can never change.
