Strong Defence Capability Guarantees Peace and Prosperity of Nation: Rodong Sinmun

Pyongyang, April 29 (KCNA) -- The Korean People's Army is providing strong support for the nuclear power in the East, the invincible military power as it reliably protects peace and security of the Korean peninsula, resolutely smashing the reckless moves of the U.S. imperialists and their vassal forces for a nuclear war against the DPRK, Rodong Sinmun Saturday says in an article. The DPRK's nuclear deterrence for self-defence is the powerful guarantee for defusing the danger of a nuclear war and ensuring durable peace on the Korean peninsula and a common treasure of the nation for reunification and prosperity of the country, the article notes, and goes on: The U.S. is the arch criminal increasing the tension and escalating the danger of nuclear war on the Korean peninsula. Peace cannot be protected by submission and begging. It is the nature of the imperialists to become more violent when someone begs for peace. The era for independent reunification advancing under the banner of By Our Nation Itself was ushered to end the history of national division spanning more than half a century and the inter-Korean relations achieved epochal development. All Koreans are benefiting from the Songun politics and living under the protection of the nuclear power in the East. The DPRK's strong nuclear deterrence for self-defence provided by the great Songun politics is the symbol of the national dignity and precious treasure common to the nation. If the U.S. and the south Korean puppet group persist in escalating the moves to stifle the DPRK, the latter will further strengthen its nuclear deterrence. -0-
