Pyongyang, June 14 (KCNA) — A spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea issued the following press statement on Saturday:
The U.S. and its satellite countries had such confabs for nuclear war as a “nuclear consultative group” meeting and “extended deterrence dialogue” and repeated their nuclear threat against the DPRK and assertion about someone’s “denuclearization”.
It is an unreasonable act and fantastic daydream to call for nuclear disarmament of the other belligerent party in meetings intended to set the use of nukes targeting the DPRK and other regional countries as a policy and design a detailed plan for carrying it out.
The DPRK Foreign Ministry resolutely denounces and rejects the U.S.-Japan-ROK moves for collective nuclear confrontation and the sinister attempt of Western countries to force a sovereign state to violate its constitution in the international arena, and warns of the consequences to be entailed by their repeated provocations.
The U.S. and its vassal forces’ absurd accusation against the DPRK and their collaboration for posing a nuclear threat to it can never affect the irreversible position of the DPRK as a nuclear weapons state.
The “denuclearization” is an irreversibly finalized agenda.
The U.S. is now busy with plot-breeding moves for a war simulating the use of nuclear weapons while massively delivering various kinds of military hardware, including latest air-to-air missiles, to the ROK and Japan. The reality clearly proves the reason and justness for our state to concentrate its efforts on bolstering up the capacity for self-defence essential to ensuring its security.
The building up of nuclear shield on the part of the DPRK is a legitimate process for deterring interference and threat from outside, guaranteeing the national sovereignty and security and ensuring the regional peace and stability.
In coping with the enemy countries’ daily-growing nuclear threat, our state is taking military and technical countermeasures involving the possible capabilities and means of every category in an all-round way.
The DPRK is firm and unshakable in its determination to control and counter with nukes, on the principle of ensuring security and defending peace by dint of powerful strength, the nuclear threat by the enemy countries aimed to encroach upon its absolute and inviolable sovereignty and security.
No matter how hard the U.S., Japan and the ROK may tone up their rhetoric, it is impossible to change the present position of the DPRK as a nuclear weapons state.
No one can recover the “denuclearization” permanently disappeared in the current of the times.
The expansion of the DPRK’s nuclear capacity and its self-defensive capability based on it are irreversible, and this is a strong security guarantee for the regional stability and peace. -0-
