The U.S. justified the test as something unavoidable, claiming that it was for the verification of its performance aimed at extending its lifespan.

Minju Joson in a commentary Friday dismisses the test-fire of the missile as a dangerous military act to maintain hegemony in the field of the strategic nuclear armed forces and realize its ambition for world supremacy.

The U.S. nature as a harasser of peace and stability was brought to light, the commentary says, and goes on:

It is the invariable ambition of the U.S. to steadily bolster the nuclear force in quality and quantity and to put it to use, if necessary, to realize its criminal aim for world domination.

The U.S. frenzy for nuclear modernization gives the lie to its rhetoric about "denuclearized world" and "nuclear disarmament".

All the countries and nations should be vigilant against the U.S. stepping up the nuclear modernization even though it has a stockpile of nuclear weapons enough to destroy the world hundreds of times.

The U.S. should face up to the trend of the times toward independence, peace and justice and behave with discretion.
