A DPRK Foreign Ministry spokesman released the following statement on April 21:
The situation on the Korean peninsula and in the region has reached an extremely dangerous phase due to the madcap nuclear war provocations of the US to violate the sovereignty and vital rights of the DPRK at any cost.
Recently, the authorities of the Trump administration are spouting a load of rubbish calling for browbeating the DPRK by force of arms every day. They are crying out for settling the issue with the help of someone, seeking to bring nuclear aircraft carrier strike groups one after another to the waters off the Korean peninsula.
Such intimidation and blackmail can never frighten the DPRK.
The invincible revolutionary Paektusan army, closely following the manoeuvres of the US, is waiting for an order only after rounding off its full preparedness to counter them immediately.
It is the unshakable will of the DPRK to go to the end if the US wants to remain unchanged in its confrontational stance.
The army of the DPRK has already clarified that its heaviest counteractions include a sudden preemptive attack involving manoeuvres on the ground, in seas, under waters and in the air and various other methods and the Korean-style tough counteractions will be promptly taken to cope with the provocations of any forms and levels from the US.
The world will clearly witness this time the fact that gone are the days never to return when the US forced its will upon other countries.
The DPRK, a peace-loving socialist state, is setting great store by peace. But it neither fears a war nor wants to avoid it.
The DPRK is a nuclear power capable of countering any option and means of the US and will not avoid any option made by it.
As it had access to a powerful nuclear deterrent to protect itself from the US nuclear threat, the DPRK will react to a total war with an all-out war, a nuclear war with nuclear strikes of its own style and surely win victory in the death-defying struggle against the US imperialists.
