Pyongyang, July 18 /Xinhua/ — The Democratic People’s Republic of Korea condemned the “military conspiracy” between the USA, Japan, and the Republic of Korea (ROK), stating that it undermines peace and stability in the region. This was reported on Saturday by the Korean Central Telegraph Agency (KCNA), citing the Ministry of National Defense of the DPRK.
As a representative of the department stated, the meeting of the defense ministers of the three countries held on Wednesday in Washington demonstrated the desire to “achieve military superiority in the region and realize their hegemonic geopolitical interests through the strengthening of trilateral military cooperation.”
The “military conspiracy” is the “root cause of undermining peace and stability on the Korean Peninsula and in the Asia-Pacific region,” the Korean Central News Agency quotes a ministry representative as saying.
He also stated that the armed forces of the DPRK will never allow a “power imbalance” in the region as a result of the activities of the “military alliance” consisting of the USA, Japan, and the ROK.
The defense department representative assured that the country’s armed forces will “consistently fulfill their constitutional mission of neutralizing real security challenges and potential threats, reliably protecting the state’s security and regional peace.” –0–
