Kim Yo Jong, Vice Director of North Korea’s Workers’ Party, criticized the joint military exercises between South Korea and the United States, stating that they will continue to amass overwhelming military power.
On the 24th, Kim claimed in a statement to the Korean Central News Agency that the military exercises that the United States has conducted with its lackeys so far this year exceed 80 times, and the exercises undertaken solely by the South Korean puppets are over 60 times.
She enumerated the various joint exercises conducted by South Korea, the United States, and Japan from January to this month, firmly stating, “Even if we only look at the various military exercises that the United States, along with Japanese and South Korean puppets, are conducting against us almost every week without rest, we can fully understand the cause of the region’s tense situation, which is like a time bomb ready to explode.”
She continued, “Who are the real culprits destroying peace and stability?” and stated, “We will continue to amass overwhelming military power to protect our sovereignty, safety, and regional peace. No one can break our resolve.”
Kim warned, “The United States should not nurture reckless courage in South Korea, their top lackey,” and threatened, “If they believe in their military prowess and attempt to use force against us, they will be annihilated immediately.”
North Korea also called for a halt to the joint South Korean-U.S. exercises in a statement by the head of the foreign news department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, stating that the United States and South Korea’s irresponsible and worrying acts of force drive the situation on the Korean Peninsula into an unpredictable state, and must be stopped immediately.
The head of the foreign news department also claimed that the so-called nuclear counterattack virtual comprehensive tactical exercise conducted by North Korea on the 22nd with super-large artillery was a legitimate exercise of the right to self-defense to prevent the outbreak of war.
