WPK's New Line Guarantees Peace in Asia-Pacific Region, Prosperity of Korean Nation: Rodong Sinmun
Pyongyang, April 5 (KCNA) -- The Workers' Party of Korea's line on simultaneously pushing forward the economic construction and the building of nuclear force is the most just revolutionary line which guarantees the peace in the Asia-Pacific region and prosperity of the Korean nation, says Rodong Sinmun Friday in a bylined article.

The U.S. imperialists and south Korean puppet group of traitors are making desperate efforts, predicting that if the DPRK achieves economic prosperity backed by nuclear weapons, that will mean their failure of hostile policy toward the DPRK, the article notes, and goes on:

The U.S. moves have stemmed from its uneasiness that it cannot put the Asia-Pacific region under its control and, furthermore, not hold hegemony over the world unless it stifles the DPRK.

This hard reality urgently requires the DPRK to simultaneously push forward the economic construction and the building of nuclear force.

The tragic incidents in different countries in recent years go to clearly prove that the DPRK's option is very just.

Some countries in Balkans and Middle East fell victims to interference and invasion by the U.S. and other Western forces. This is because they were not transparent in the stand of self-defence and neglected the building of defence capabilities. This shows that if one does not have strong muscle, one can neither defend the sovereignty of the country and the dignity of the nation nor achieve happiness and prosperity of the people.

The army and people of the DPRK fully support and approve the WPK's new line and will implement it to the end under any circumstances.
