Pyongyang, March 27 (KCNA)

Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers’ Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, guided the defence science research work of the Unmanned Aeronautical Technology Complex and the detective electronic warfare research group on March 25-26.

Accompanying him were Pak Jong Chon and Jo Chun Ryong, secretaries of the WPK Central Committee, Ri Pyong Chol, general advisor for the munitions policy of the WPK Central Committee, Kim Yong Hwan, president of the Academy of Defence Sciences, and other senior officials of the WPK Central Committee and defence science research institutes.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un learned about various kinds of reconnaissance and suicide attack drones, newly developed and being produced by an institute and enterprises under the Unmanned Aeronautical Technology Complex, and oversaw their performance test.

The test confirmed the innovative performance of a new-type strategic reconnaissance drone with the detective ability to track and monitor different strategic targets and enemy troops’ activities in the land and sea. And it fully demonstrated the striking capability of suicide drones to be used for various tactical attack missions.

Kim Jong Un made an important assessment of the military effectiveness and strategic value of the strategic reconnaissance drone with improving performance and of the suicide attack drones to which new artificial intelligence was applied.

Expressing his active support for the new plans of the complex, he agreed on its proposal for expanding the production capacity.

Saying that the field of unmanned equipment and artificial intelligence should be top-prioritized and developed in modernizing the armed forces, he stressed that it is important to work out a correct long-term national plan for promoting the rapid development of the work to use intelligent drones and perseveringly and dynamically propel it as a medium- and long-term project, in keeping with the trend of modern warfare in which the competition for using intelligent drones as a major means of military power is being accelerated and the range of their use is steadily expanding in military activities.

As already stated, a lot of objective changes that come with the rapid sci-tech development call for updating a large part of our military theory, practice and education, he said, adding that it is an important task facing our Party at present to adopt a correct, appropriate line and solution.

Saying that the WPK has advanced a clear line for perfectly combining unmanned weapon and equipment systems with operational plans and fundamentals of battle, regarding it as one of the important components of the armed forces modernization programme to put weapons and equipment on an unmanned basis, he reiterated the scientific and practical orientation and ways for accelerating the continuous qualitative and quantitative and technical transformation in the development and production of unmanned weapons and equipment and for putting operational ability on a highly-developed basis.

He learned about the performances of reconnaissance and intelligence gathering means and electronic jamming and attack systems newly developed by the detective electronic warfare research group and its long-term plan.

He said that our special means with the application of up-to-date technology would play a big role in monitoring potential threats and collecting vital intelligence and that they would give full play to their might in enhancing our army’s capability of conducting various kinds of intelligence-gathering operations and neutralizing the enemy’s combat means of various missions.

Expressing great satisfaction over the fact that new electronic jamming and attack weapon systems have been developed and gone into production, he spoke highly of the fact that the stages of the WPK’s line of modernizing the army are being qualitatively attained thanks to the clear brains of our younger-generation defence science research group.

Saying that the Unmanned Aeronautical Technology Complex and the detective electronic warfare research group have a very important role to play in coping with the development in modern warfare of today characterized by confrontation between intelligent hi-tech weapon systems, he gave an important task related to the immediate duty and the long-term goals to be attained by this sector.

Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Guides Preparations for Operating Major Neighbourhood-serving Amenities Built in Third-stage Section of Hwasong Area

 

Pyongyang, April 4 (KCNA) -- Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, gave field guidance on April 3 over the preparations for operating the major neighbourhood-serving amenities built in the third-stage section of the Hwasong area nearing completion.

He was accompanied by officials of design and operation preparation organs and commanding officers of construction units.

The far-reaching policy-oriented plan and energetic leadership of the WPK to provide the citizens of the capital city with more wonderful material and cultural well-being are ushering in a new heyday of Pyongyang construction and the efflorescence of Pyongyang culture.

In the third-stage section of the Hwasong area, where another new large architectural group has been built in ideal harmony, different kinds of modern neighbourhood-serving networks like commercial, public catering, technical and recreation service facilities with strong symbolic and specific characters are arranged according to the direct instructions of the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, sustaining the conspicuous and developing features of the section.

Kim Jong Un went round the Hwasong Vehicle Service Centre.

Learning in detail about the preparations for operating the service centre wonderfully furnished with modern equipment and means necessary for technical service of vehicles, he spoke highly of the fact that all the processes are ready to be fully convenient for satisfying the customers' demands, saying:

This new specialized centre for technical service for various kinds of vehicles in the Hwasong area will serve as a new base for improving the quality of technical service for vehicles and meeting the demand for it. When another larger-scale similar technical service centre is built in the fourth-stage section, the Hwasong area will become a centre for serving vehicles. This constitutes an important progress in improving the functions and appearance of the capital city and the service for the people's convenience.

He went round a 300-seat video game house built in a characteristic style.

He was pleased to hear that the game house to be furnished with various kinds of facilities is expected to be very popular among young people including children when it is opened. He said that special attention should be paid to the establishment of its operation system and order and the preparations for service as this new space specializing in service for video games is a base of the service field to be opened for the first time in the country.

Learning about the preparations for operating various commercial and public catering service bases, he highly appreciated that the service amenities chain built on an overpass have a strong symbolic and peculiar character and that its design and construction were on a high level as desired by the Party.

Noting that to steadily explore and expand new service field in fresh forms and ways takes an important place in carrying out the policy of the Party to radically improve the material and cultural well-being of the people across the country as well as the citizens of the capital city, he set forth the tasks to this end and gave instructions on the regular maintenance and operation of the service bases.

He repeatedly requested the relevant units to make effective preparations for the operation of the service facilities built in the third-stage section of the Hwasong area as each of them is a structure planned and provided with much effort by the Party for the people including the coming generations.

Pyongyang, April 5 (KCNA)

Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, visited the training base of the special operations units of the Korean People's Army and guided the general training on April 4.

Accompanying him were Pak Jong Chon, secretary of the Central Committee of the WPK and vice-chairman of the Central Military Commission of the WPK, and other leading officials of the WPK Central Committee.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un was greeted on the spot by No Kwang Chol, minister of National Defence of the DPRK, Ri Yong Gil, chief of the General Staff of the KPA, and the first vice-minister of National Defence, the director of the combat training department of the KPA General Staff and commanding officers of the special operations units.

After receiving a salute from commanding officers of the KPA, he mounted the observation post to watch the general tactical training and small-arms shooting contest conducted and held by combatants of various special operations units according to the training programme.

The training was aimed at steadily exploring and applying new military tactics and methodologies of Korean style for bolstering up the special operations forces in keeping with the developing aspects and changing trend of modern warfare and mastering them through practical training for real war so as to prepare all combatants more thoroughly to reliably and skillfully carry out their special operations tasks under any combat situation.

The brave combatants, who have grown up to be the strongest combat group and the core vanguard of the armed forces of the DPRK while cultivating matchless strength and courage under the outstanding guidance of the great brilliant commander, fully demonstrated the strong independent operations capability and the fighting spirit and crack-shot marksmanship of our invincible army in all drills.

Kim Jong Un highly appreciated the lofty ideological and spiritual world of the combatants who are devoting themselves to their noble mission and duty for defending the security of the state and the safety of the people always with battlefield in their mind, true to the Party's idea of building the special operations forces.

The actual war capability for guaranteeing victory in the battlefield is bolstered up through intensive training and it is the most vivid expression of patriotism and loyalty to the country and the people and the first revolutionary duty for the soldiers with arms to complete the combat preparations, he said, calling for taking it as the core goal of army building to turn the army into a strong one in which all the officers and men fight shoulder to shoulder, in one body and with one idea and one intention.

The strengthening of the special operations forces constitutes a major component of our army building strategy at present, he said, indicating important tasks to take a series of crucial measures for putting the special operations capability on a highly-developed basis.

He guided an automatic rifle firing drill and a sniper rifle firing drill of the combatants.

He personally conducted the test-fire of a sniper rifle to be newly supplied to special operations units and learned about its results, expressing great satisfaction over the performance and power of the sniper rifle developed in our own way.

Then he watched general special physical exercises of special operations unit combatants.

The combatants, who have prepared themselves to be a-match-for-a-hundred soldiers with iron fists as sturdy as bullets and brave fighters, fully demonstrated their physical and technical abilities.

Watching the exercises pulsating with the fighting spirit to annihilate the enemy and the heroic mettle, Kim Jong Un warmly encouraged the officers and men of the special operations forces filled with patriotic enthusiasm and militant courage.

He had a photo session with the reliable officers and men who are further improving the strongest capability for an actual war in the training with courage, pluck and towering self-confidence to counter any war and crisis without hesitation.

When the photo session was over, the KPA's reliable guards and passionate warriors broke into thunderous cheers reflecting their pledge of loyalty, looking up to the great iron-willed commander with deep emotion.

Kim Jong Un expressed expectations and belief that all the units of the special operations forces would remain absolutely faithful to their mission of defending the country, the revolution and the people and firmly safeguard the victorious advance of the most just and sacred cause of the DPRK with matchless arms.

All the servicepersons, who took part in the training, hardened their firm determination to more reliably prepare themselves as the spearhead of the elite revolutionary armed forces that always wins victory in every battle and conquers any fortress when it is determined, for the great Comrade Kim Jong Un, the eternal prosperity of our dignified state and happiness of the people.

Press Statement of Vice General Director of General Armaments Bureau of Ministry of National Defence of DPRK

 

Pyongyang, April 2 (KCNA)

The vice general director of the General Armaments Bureau of the Ministry of National Defence of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea issued the following press statement on April 1 under the title "The new 'co-produced weapon' of the U.S.-Japan military alliance signals the further unstable security environment of the region":

The U.S.-Japan alliance styling itself a key axis of the U.S.-led military alliance system in the Asia-Pacific region is taking on a fresh appearance to give repeated signals of instability to the surrounding countries and the regional society.

A typical example is that the U.S. and Japan formally agreed to co-produce the latest air-to-air missile AIM-120, with the recent visit of the U.S. secretary of Defense to Japan as an occasion.

What is serious is that it can never be accepted only as the production of weapons for fighters aimed at defending airspace and securing the command of the air. The danger of it is further highlighted in the light of the peculiarities of the geopolitical and military security environment in Northeast Asia.

All types of main fighters, involved in the U.S.-Japan and U.S.-Japan-ROK three party joint aerial drills that we have frequently witnessed in the sky near the Korean peninsula and further in the sky above the East Sea and South Sea of China, can carry the AIM-120 with a range of more than 160 km.

In view of the military doctrine of the U.S. Air Force which specified that the command of the air should be secured through massive introduction and use of the ultra-modern long-range air weapons such as AIM-120, the anti-aircraft system of enemy states be neutralized through preemptive strike and then strategic bombers be sent to deal a heavy blow to the strategic depth of the opponent, AIM-120 is now becoming another "co-produced weapon" of the U.S.-Japan military alliance, which is turning offensive and aggressive from A to Z.

The joint production of ultra-modern weapons pursued by the U.S. and Japan is adding new element of strategic instability to the Asia-Pacific region, bringing ominous dark clouds.

The U.S. has connived at and encouraged Japan's moves for a military giant since last century. It has sharply expanded the application range of the U.S.-Japan security treaty, which was limited to "contingency in Japan", to space and cyber fields, to say nothing of "contingencies in areas surrounding Japan" in recent years. It has also actively backed Japan's possession of "counterattack capability" and unhesitatingly offered long-range attack means such as Tomahawk cruise missile.

At a time when the U.S. and Japan are seeking to integrate the existing military operation control system through the U.S. military reorganization in Japan and the establishment of the "integrated operation command" and to steadily access to the wartime environment, their cooperation in the field of munitions industry is being accelerated in direct proportion to it. It is not a secret that such moves are aimed at militarily deterring the regional countries.

Certainly, the center of gravity of the U.S. hegemony-oriented military security strategy is changing and it is a new warning signal for the Asia-Pacific regional society including the countries in Northeast Asia.

A force without justice is a tyranny and justice without a force is meaningless.

It will be a priority task of the DPRK in the future, too, to actively cope with the unstable strategic environment being created around the DPRK by the U.S. and its followers and to bolster up the powerful deterrence capable of making enemy countries have no other choice but to give up their political and military ambition.

The DPRK's efforts to apply the most appropriate solution to control and manage the military tension in the region will continue, and Washington and its servants' attempt to hold military hegemony will never be allowed.

Press Statement of Kim Yo Jong, Vice Department Director of C.C., WPK

 

Pyongyang, April 9 (KCNA)

Kim Yo Jong, vice department director of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, issued the following press statement "The anachronistic 'denuclearization' idea of the U.S., Japan and the ROK can never affect the position of our state" on April 8:

The diplomatic authorities of the U.S., Japan and the ROK again talked about someone's "complete denuclearization", terming the Democratic People's Republic of Korea's exercise of its sovereign rights a "threat" at the recent NATO foreign ministers' meeting.

It only fully exposed the uneasiness of the U.S., Japan and the ROK in a desperate plight of having to talk about "denuclearization" in chorus although they just know that "denuclearization" of us is nothing but a daydream that can never come true.

Just two months ago, we clarified how stupid the U.S. is in pursuing the goal of "denuclearizing" the DPRK, something utterly impossible and unrealistic in practice and conception.

They still talk about "complete denuclearization," lost in the past daydream that brought them to failure, revealing themselves how anachronistic and absurd their level of political judgment is.

Did they come up with a good way to realize someone's "denuclearization" whenever they had a loud brainstorming session?

If they frantically cry out for "denuclearization", really believing in it, they must be termed nonsensical.

The position of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea as a nuclear weapons state, established along with the existence of its substantial and very strong nuclear deterrent and permanently fixed in its supreme and basic state law according to the unanimous will of all its people, is a result of the inevitable option which accurately reflected the hostile threat from outside and the change in the present and future world security mechanical structure. So it does not change no matter how desperately anyone denies.

We don't care about anyone's denial and recognition and we never change our option. This is our steadfast choice that can never be reversed by any physical strength or sly artifice.

If anyone openly talks about dismantlement of nuclear weapons before us or seeks to revive the dead concept of "denuclearization" under various pretexts, it just constitutes the most hostile act of denying the sovereignty of the DPRK and forcing it to renounce its constitution and social system. I made it clear once again on this occasion.

The nuclear forces of the DPRK not only play a key role in deterring aggression and threat from outside and defending the sovereignty and security of the state but also make an important contribution to ensuring the regional and global balance of power and strategic security.

The only way for the U.S., Japan and the ROK to defuse their current security concern is to completely refrain from their unilateral attempt to change the status quo and shake the present position of the DPRK and sincerely find a method to avoid head-on conflict.

If the U.S. and its vassal forces continue to insist on anachronistic "denuclearization" while talking about "threat" from someone, it will only give unlimited justness and justification to the advance of the DPRK aspiring after the building of the strongest nuclear force for self-defence.

The DPRK will make steady responsible efforts to thoroughly defend the supreme interests of the state and ensure regional peace and stability, given that the U.S. has gone to extremes in its nuclear threat and its nuclear alliance is getting desperate in its confrontational moves as days go by.
