The DPRK Foreign Ministry strongly condemns the U.S. and its some satellites for referring to the UNSC the just counteraction measures of the Korean People's Army on south Korea-U.S. joint drills escalating the military tensions on the Korean peninsula.

The DPRK is watching the U.S. posing a serious threat to the stability of the situation on the Korean peninsula and in its vicinity by redeploying the carrier task force in the waters off the Korean peninsula.
