Statement of DPRK Government

Pyongyang, August 7 (KCNA) — The Government of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea on Monday issued a statement over the fact that the U.S. and other hostile forces, terrified at the growth of the DPRK’s state nuclear force in quality and quantity, are steeped in the most intensive sanctions, pressure and provocations against it.
The statement says:
On August 6, the U.S. framed up “sanctions resolution” 2371 at the United Nations Security Council which is geared to completely block the DPRK’s economic development and improvement of the people’s livelihood, branding its test-launch of ICBM as “a threat to international peace and security”.
This UN “sanctions resolution”, to all intents and purposes, is an outcome of diabolical attempts of the U.S. to isolate and stifle the DPRK, which constitutes a flagrant infringement upon its sovereignty and an open challenge to it.
The DPRK’s access to the strongest nuclear force is a fair and legitimate measure for self-defense to protect the country’s sovereignty and the nation’s right to existence from the high-handed and arbitrary acts of the U.S. which has made it its business to pursue the policy of extreme hostility and pose nuclear threat to the DPRK well over half a century.
The successive test-launch of ICBM by the DPRK was a stern warning to the U.S. which, being entrenched far across the Pacific, wages reckless and perilous military provocation and despicable campaign of sanctions on the DPRK.
However, the U.S. goes more frenzied and desperate instead of accepting the DPRK’s existence and learning to coexist with the latter. It is trying to drive the situation of the Korean peninsula to the brink of nuclear war, running amuck to conduct missile drill against the DPRK and deploying massive strategic equipment to the peninsula.
It was against this backdrop that the U.S. manipulated UNSC to rig up the “sanctions resolution” more heinous than ever, placing a total ban even on normal trade activities and economic exchange, thereby disclosing before the whole world its evil intention to obliterate the ideology and system of the DPRK and exterminate its people.
On the other hand, the U.S. causes such a racket with no time to wipe their mouth, making impudent remarks that it is considering the so-called military option targeting the DPRK.
There are countries to which the ridiculous threats of the U.S. are working and there are countries which lie prostrate at the bluff of the U.S.
The U.S. claiming to be the “only superpower of the world” and the DPRK’s neighbors hardly any smaller in size than the U.S. are all so frightened at merely two ICMB test-launches by the DPRK that they are making much a scene baying at each other. Watching them go frantic only redoubles the DPRK’s pride in the country’s great might and reaffirms its faith that the path it had chosen is the only way to survive and prosper.(more)
