Rodong Sinmun on DPRK's war deterrent force

KCNA

    Pyongyang, June 2 (KCNA) -- The DPRK's war deterrent force serves as a powerful fortress and self-defense force to defend the beloved motherland and the whole Korean nation and a guarantee for peace on the Korean Peninsula as pointed out in the message to all the Koreans released by the Central Committee of the Democratic Front for the Reunification of the Fatherland and the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of the Fatherland. Rodong Sinmun today says this in a signed article. It continues:
    The historical facts and the present situation show that but for powerful military deterrent force, war deterrent force, the dignity, sovereignty and security of a sovereign state would not be defended. It is by the powerful military deterrent force of the DPRK that the Korean nation checks a war and defends peace of the country and its security.
    This deterrent force is an iron hammer to those foreign forces infringing upon the vital right and sovereignty of the Korean nation but an iron shield to prevent the crisis of war with compatriotic love for the South Korean people.
    But for this powerful deterrent force the living of the Korean nation, the existence of any political parties and organizations and operation of enterprises would have been unthinkable.
    The attitude toward the DPRK's Songun policy and deterrent force is a touchstone verifying the standpoint standing for the security of the whole nation and the peace and independent reunification of the country and that of siding with the foreign forces.
    All the fellow countrymen should uphold, support and defend with patriotic mind the DPRK's great Songun policy and powerful military deterrent force, the most precious vital energy of the nation, so as to check a pressing danger of a nuclear war and defend the peace of the country.
