U.S. plan for military drills under fire
KCNA
Pyongyang, February 21 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Friday denounces the U.S. projected foal eagle military drill and "reception, staging, onward-movement and integration" exercise as a nuclear test war and a preliminary war, aimed to make a military attack upon the DPRK and stifle it under the pretext of the nuclear issue.
The news analyst says:
The military maneuvers, in view of their scale, characters and contents, are designed for a forestalling nuclear attack on the DPRK, replacing the "Team Spirit" joint military exercises.
Lurking behind the joint military drills planned by the U.S. at the time of the worsening nuclear crisis on the Korean Peninsula is a criminal attempt to hinder the independent and peaceful reunification of the Korean nation, aggravate the military confrontation and tension on the Korean Peninsula and, furthermore, militarily stifle the DPRK.
We can never overlook the U.S. bid to stage the dangerous drills at a time when the nuclear confrontation between the DPRK and the U.S. is going to extremes.
We do not want a war but we are not afraid of it. Our pluck is firm.
Our army and people will not remain an onlooker at the U.S. imperialists' reckless moves to provoke a war of aggression but deal a stern and decisive blow to the aggressors with the might of army-based policy to prove how miserable the end of the aggressors is.
If the South Korean warhawks join in the U.S. war moves, regardless of the interests and security of the nation, they would face a stern judgment by the nation and history.
