DPRK's Military Action Will Continue: Military

Commentator

Pyongyang, November 3 (KCNA) -- A military commentator of the DPRK issued the following
article "We will continue military action to bolster up the deterrence and ensure the strategic
security in the Korean peninsula and the region" on Friday:
On Nov. 1, the United States conducted the test-fire of ICBM Minuteman 3 at the Vandenberg
space force base, in the presence of a puppet south Korean military delegation.
The launch came to failure, but the test-fire, resumed in seven years with the participation of
puppet south Korean military gangsters as part of demonstration of its "extended deterrence
commitment", clearly shows who is the target of the U.S. nuclear and strategic weapons.
What should not be overlooked is the fact that the enemies dared to cry out for the redeployment
of U.S. tactical nuclear bombs in the Korean peninsula, timed to coincide with a plan on the
development of new-type nuclear bomb named B61-13 recently announced by the U.S. Defense
Department.
The U.S. nuclear arms buildup is getting intensified amid the ever-escalating large-scale armed
conflicts in the European Continent and the Middle East and the unprecedented military
confrontation among nuclear weapons states. This cannot be construed otherwise than a
dangerous scheme to attain military supremacy with the actual use of nuclear weapons.
The U.S. and puppet south Korean military gangsters' recent and ongoing military moves against
the DPRK, including the landing of U.S. nuclear strategic bombers in the puppet region, are
extremely provocative and reckless hostile acts that unilaterally escalate the military tension in
the Korean peninsula.
The armed forces of the DPRK are keeping themselves fully ready to counter any hostile threat to
its sovereignty and security and interests in order to neutralize such attempt outside the territory,
while watching the enemy's moves.
The DPRK's military counteraction stand to respond to the nukes in kind is immutable,
irrespective of whether the U.S. targets the DPRK with strategic nuclear weapons or deploys
tactical nukes.
Now that the nuclear threat by the U.S. and its vassal forces to the DPRK nears a new red line, to
steadily bolster up the self-defensive nuclear armed forces on the part of the DPRK is the
exercise of its right to self-defense for protecting its security from the hostile forces' threat and a
powerful diversionary measure for ensuring peace and security in Northeast Asia and the rest of
the world.
The armed forces of the DPRK are filled with the determination to faithfully fulfill their
constitutional obligations for defending the national sovereignty and territorial integrity and the
rights and interests of the people by responding to the reckless military provocations of war
maniacs with prompt, overwhelming and decisive counteraction.

The DPRK will as ever continue its military action to bolster up the deterrence and ensure the
strategic security in the Korean peninsula and the region. -0-
