Rodong Sinmun Hails Nuclear Test
Pyongyang, February 14 (KCNA) -- The DPRK fully demonstrated its tremendous potential and military capability of the great Paektusan nation through its 3rd underground nuclear test, says Rodong Sinmun Thursday in an editorial.

It continues:

The peace and security on the Korean Peninsula and the sovereignty and the right of the nation to existence are guaranteed by the DPRK's potential capability strong enough to foil any moves of the enemies for aggression.

The DPRK succeeded in conducting a safe and perfect nuclear test at a higher level than that in the past, clearly showing how high its level of science and technology is and how tremendous its economic potential and defence industry are.

It is a shining victory of the Songun revolution that the DPRK is capable of producing anything more powerful than a nuke by its own efforts and with its indigenous technology as it pleases despite the imperialists' persistent sanctions and moves to stifle it.

The military and technological superiority is no longer a monopoly of the imperialists. Gone are the days never to return when the enemies could threaten the DPRK with A-bombs.

Even when the U.S. imperialists launch another campaign for pressure and aggression against the DPRK over its nuclear test, it will never work on it because it is fully prepared for both sanctions and war.

For the DPRK, the integral whole of the leader, party, army and people is a weapon more powerful than a nuke.

As it has the single-minded unity plus nuclear deterrence, the DPRK is not afraid of any formidable enemy and there is no powerful enemy it cannot beat.

The DPRK will be ever-victorious in the future, too as it proudly emerged a satellite manufacturer and launcher and nuclear weapons state with all service personnel and people united closer around the Workers' Party of Korea.
