Press Statement of Vice Department Director of WPK

Central Committee Kim Yo Jong

Pyongyang, September 24 (KCNA) -- Kim Yo Jong, vice department director of the Central
Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, released on Tuesday the following press
statement titled "An abnormal object appeared at Pusan Port: U.S. strategic assets would
not find their resting place in the Korean peninsula."
The Aerospace Reconnaissance Agency, an independent intelligence organ directly under
the head of state of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, captured an abnormal object
at a wharf, a subject of its constant attention at Pusan Port of the ROK at 10:03:10 on
Monday and reported its reconnaissance data.
A nuclear submarine appeared on the wharf where a U.S. aircraft carrier used to moor at.
The latest nuclear submarine, which has never appeared openly since it was commissioned
in 2020, made its appearance at the Pusan operation base for the first time in history. It can
be hardly regarded as a "sightseeing voyage".
Given the U.S. has been demonstrating its overall strength recently while making public the
"might" of its nuclear strategic assets in order, one can easily guess the true aim of the open
portcall of the nuclear submarine which should have been concealed under the “surface of
water.”
In June the U.S. forces launched Minuteman-3 intercontinental ballistic missiles twice and on
September 18 they opened to the public the test-flight image of B-21 Raider, a next-
generation stealth strategic bomber, for the first time.
The U.S. let the latest nuclear submarine of the U.S. Navy anchor in Pusan Port of the ROK,
thus took out all its cards called "three nuclear strategic assets".
This clearly reveals the frantic military and strategic attempt of the U.S. hell-bent on
intentionally demonstrating the "superiority of strength" before the world.
The U.S. is now experiencing unprecedented strategic inferiority in the Korean peninsula and
the Asia-Pacific region and is very afraid of the reality in which the entity of the strong power
of independence against the U.S. and the fortress for defending justice is beginning to make
its appearance in the region.
Therefore, it is deploying all nuclear strategic assets in the Korean peninsula and its vicinity
while cooking up various large and small military blocs in the region to contain the DPRK and
independent sovereign states by force of arms and to "bind" the group of its followers who
feel uneasy and impatient.
The Wilmington Declaration making the "nuclear threat" from anyone the subject of
discussion was fabricated at the QUAD summit meeting held in Delaware State of the U.S.

some days ago and the promise for the U.S.-Japan-ROK cooperation to cope with the so-
called "ever-increasing nuclear threat" was made at the U.S.-Japan summit held on the
same day. They are also typical products of the U.S. geopolitical sinister intention to
politically and militarily encircle and stifle the DPRK and regional countries.
The U.S. latest nuclear submarine's visit to the port of the ROK is a proof that the U.S.
ambition to often take up nuclear strategic assets, boast of its strength, increase its threat to
the rival and "enjoy" its hegemonic privilege by dint of its malicious strength at any cost is
getting ever more extreme.
No matter how the U.S. may demonstrate its "overwhelming capability" by rising to the
surface even a submarine whose mission is to mount a final nuclear strike under the sea,
nothing will change.
The DPRK's nuclear war deterrent to cope with and contain various threats from outside is
bound to be bolstered up both in quality and quantity continuously and limitlessly as the
security of the state is constantly exposed to the U.S. nuclear threat and blackmail.
The U.S. nuclear submarine's call at Pusan Port may be a break time for the U.S. marines
and a comfort for the U.S. stooges, but it can never be an object of fear in the face of the
super-powerful entity standing over against the U.S.
The U.S. strategic assets will never find their resting place in the region of the Korean
peninsula.
We will continue to inform that all the ports and military bases of the ROK are not safe
places.
The U.S. is by no means a "pronoun of security". -0-
