The U.S., taken aback by the drills, branded them as a "violation of resolutions" of the UN Security Council and urged the international community to cope with them appropriately.

The U.S. secretary of State also let loose a spate of vituperations against the DPRK, terming it an "evil place" and a "country of evils."

Rodong Sinmun Thursday in a commentary says in this regard:

This is nothing but a death cry of those astounded by the self-defensive power of the DPRK and its rapid development in the building of a thriving socialist nation.

The U.S. reckless provocation is just a smear campaign of wicked guys shocked by the peace-loving stand of the DPRK.

If a climate for reconciliation is created and peace and stability settle in on the Korean peninsula and in its vicinity, the U.S. military policy and foreign policy for aggression aimed at carrying out its strategy for dominating the Asia-Pacific region will end in smoke. Worse still, the U.S. will lose its initiative in the issue of the Korean peninsula, and also not a few arms markets.

It is clear that the U.S. is a very mean villain and rogue state which seeks to fish in troubled waters by inciting the confrontation between the north and the south of Korea.

It is better for the U.S. to behave itself, knowing if the sun rises in the east or west and how the world affairs develop.

The DPRK regards vituperations let loose by the U.S. as exhausted screams of old hooligans making desperate efforts to sustain their waning life.

With no rhetoric can the U.S. arrest the victorious advance of the DPRK.
