Pyongyang, September 14 (KCNA) -- Kim Yo Jong, vice department director of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, issued the following press statement "I remind them that the show of strength in the wrong place will inevitably bring bad results to themselves" on Saturday:

A few days later, nuclear operation drill dubbed Iron Mace and multi-domain joint military exercises Freedom Edge will be staged simultaneously on the Korean peninsula and in the surrounding region with the participation of the U.S. and its allies.

We have already cautioned that the "Guidelines for Nuclear Deterrence and Nuclear Operations on the Korean Peninsula" fabricated by the U.S. and the ROK are, indeed, a dangerous "idea".

If the present rulers have sympathized with the dangerous "idea" cooked up by the former rulers and put it into practice with full consideration given to it, we will regard it as an unfiltered "demonstration" of their anti-DPRK confrontational stand and "succession" of confrontational policy.

I remind the U.S., Japan and the ROK that the reckless show of strength made by them in real action in the vicinity of the DPRK, which is the wrong place, will inevitably bring bad results to themselves. -0-
