N Korea Vows ‘Overwhelming Nuclear Force’ to Counter US amid Military Drill

The North Korean government has pledged it will respond with the “toughest possible” measures to any US military provocation against the country, after the US pledged to deploy more weapons to the Korean peninsula.

Following recent “reckless military confrontational maneuvers and hostile acts of the US and its vassal forces,” the Foreign Ministry of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK) said Thursday that the Biden regime brought the “military and political situation on the Korean peninsula and in the region” to an “extreme red line.”

“The US is going to ignite an all-out showdown with the DPRK,” officials there said, citing the intimidating new war games the US is set to hold along with the South Korean regime in February – including a “drill for operating extended deterrence” and the “largest-ever field mobile live shell firing drill simulating the use of nuclear weapons.”
