Press Statement of DPRK Foreign Ministry


Pyongyang, October 6 (KCNA) -- The Foreign Ministry of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea issued the following press statement "We will be more resolute and clear in exercising our sovereignty toward the most hostile state" on Tuesday:


New danger of war is prevailing along the southern border of the DPRK, bounded by the state most hostile toward it.


The ROK made public the "final investigation results", in which it forcibly linked with us the "mine explosion case" that occurred in a border area, and called for "responsive diplomatic and military steps" to be taken against our state with a "mine-removing operation" as the start.


As we already stated, the ROK fully betrayed and proved itself what the ulterior purpose of the farce plotted and orchestrated by Seoul is.


The "mine-explosion case" is a sinister obstructive move intended to brand our fortification of the southern border, downright exercise of the sovereignty, as a "military invasion" and delay and check it, and this is no more than a poor trick of the ROK military to shift the blame for its own accident onto us.


The ROK seeks to hold the DPRK accountable for the premeditated farce, fabricated and determined unilaterally by it, and tarnish the latter's international image. It is a grave provocation never to be overlooked and a wanton violation of our sovereignty that deserves sure punishment.


The Foreign Ministry of the DPRK categorically rejects the despicable attempt of the ROK and solemnly clarifies that our state will exercise its just sovereign rights in a more resolute and bold manner to ensure the security of the southern border.


We do not care about them trying to remove the mines irrelevant to us, and we have no reason to pay heed to such farce of the ROK.


However, if a jackboot or a spark of fire from the ROK goes even a millimeter beyond the border to violate our territory, the border guard forces of the DPRK will take immediate and powerful counteraction.


We make it clear that if a similar thing happens again in the ROK in the future, we are not responsible for it but the side, which sustained it, is entirely accountable.


As already clarified, the DPRK will never discuss with the enemy countries the issue of exercising its military sovereignty within its territory but defend its territorial sovereignty by thoroughly exercising its power, not by negotiations.


We take this opportunity to reaffirm that it is the official stand of the DPRK government.


The malicious attempt of the ROK to attain its sinister purpose through a mean farce can never work in any case.


The Democratic People's Republic of Korea will be most resolute and definite in exercising its sovereignty toward the relation with the most hostile state, in which any slightest tolerance, concession and connivance are disallowed. -0-

About the so-called “Japanese Abduction issue “.



Some friends of ours in Turkey have asked us to write something about the so-called “Abduction issue “ which even now and again gets dragged up as anti-DPRK propaganda despite the fact that it was settled nearly a quarter of a century through high level negotiations between the DPRK and Japan in 2002 . Apparently Deepseek AI contains a great deal of misinformation on the subject.



The so-called “abduction issue “ involved a tiny number of Japanese citizens about 10 or so who were taken to the DPRK . After negotiations between Chairman KIM JONG IL and Japanese prime minister Koizumi  a number of them were returned to Japan . The incident should be seen within the context of Japan’s harsh colonial rule over Korea for several decades .


It was falsely asserted that some Japanese were taken to so that the DPRK could learn how to pass as ethnic Japanese in order to conduct intelligence operations against Japan . This is nonsense . There were would be no need for the DPRK to do this because Korea was a Japanese colony for dozens of years and there is a Korean minority in Japan , so the DPRK would have plenty of knowledge of the ways of the Japanese.


It was even claimed that a Japanese citizen was abducted from the UK in the 1980s by DPRK “secret agents “ but strangely this case was not in the newspapers at the time . Moreover the DPRK did not have diplomatic relations with the UK or an embassy in the UK at the time so such an operation would have been impossible.


Deepseek also claimed that “ Former North Korean agent Kim Hyon-hui claimed that while she was in North Korea, she had contact with abducted Japanese people”. However “Kim Hyon-hui “ was not real but a south Korean actress who was part of a false propaganda campaign against the DPRK in the 1980s which blamed the DPRK for the disappearance of a south Korean airliner .


In 2020 the Korean Central News Agency pointed out that in fact Japan is the worst kidnapper ;


‘The DPRK is the very victim of the abduction issue.




As attested by history, Japan is the world's worst war criminal state and kidnapper on record.




When Japan occupied Korea by force in the last century, it abducted and dragged some 8.4 million innocent Koreans to battlefields for its wars of aggression and medieval slave labor sites, killed more than one million of them, and forced 200 000 women into sexual slavery of the Imperial Japanese Army. All these crimes perpetrated by Japan are undeniable.




Far from honestly reflecting on and atoning for its past stained with hideous abduction, Japan persists in committing sins.




By egging on the notorious anti-DPRK plot-makers including the "investigation council for specific missing persons," Japan has cooked up a series of "abduction" farces and made no scruple of disguising missing Japanese as "victims of abduction by the north."




It is utterly preposterous that such a criminal state, Japan, makes a fuss over the issue of abduction by someone.’


This is the truth about the so-called “abduction issue 


Leadership of Great Party is Sure Guarantee of Victory

The Korean revolution has won victory after victory braving all trials of history, which is unthinkable apart from the wise leadership of the Workers’ Party of Korea (WPK).

The WPK boasts of a great origin and succession. The glorious history of its founding and revolutionary leadership are deeply engraved with the immortal exploits of President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il, the founder and the leader of the Workers’ Party of Korea.

During the course of waging a bloody struggle for national liberation, President Kim Il Sung paved the original path for building a revolutionary Party and accomplished the historic cause of founding the Party. He thus provided a solid cornerstone for the permanent existence and victorious development of the Party.

At a critical time when we witnessed in the international arena acute struggles between progress and reaction, the revolution and counter-revolution, and when the socialist cause and the cause of global independence faced grave challenges posed by the imperialists, Chairman Kim Jong Il made public the immortal work entitled “The Workers’ Party of Korea Organizes and Guides All the Victories of Our People” where he clearly indicated the orientation and ways for further development of the Party into an invincible and genuine people’s Party leading the cause of independence and socialism of the popular masses to victory.

With an insight into the position and role of the Party in the revolutionary struggle and construction, he developed the WPK founded by President Kim Il Sung into a seasoned and militant Party that always guides the people to victory through any hardship and ordeal and into a sophisticated general political staff of the Korean revolution that enjoys the absolute trust of the entire people.

Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un ushered in the great heyday of strengthening the whole Party with his extraordinary political ability and energetic leadership. He remarkably strengthened the leadership ability of the Workers’ Party of Korea, the organizer and guide of all victories of our people, to unfold a great era of transformation on this land.

Under the leadership of the WPK, the DPRK has greeted a new transformative era of overall rejuvenation. Her appearance changes every day in both the capital city and provinces, and all fields of socialist construction including politics, national defense, the economy and culture have developed simultaneously, fully demonstrating the national dignity and might on the highest level.

Upholding the leadership of the Workers’ Party of Korea and rallied more firmly behind respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, our people will surely emerge victorious in the struggle to usher in a new era of overall state development.

BGSJI and KFA UK support DPRK FM statement on UN Human Rights report

 BRITISH GROUP FOR THE STUDY OF THE JUCHE IDEA

4th of October 2026

 The British Group for the Study of the Juche Idea and  the  Korean Friendship Association of the UK  KFA  UK )  , issued a joint statement in support of the press statement of spokesperson for the Foreign Ministry of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK ) that was issued on the 3rd of October;

The UN Secretary General Guterres submitted a so-called " Report on the Human Rights Situation in North Korea " , which even failed to call the DPRK by its correct title. The "report " is full of lies and slanders which aim to tarnish the reputation of the DPRK and undermine the socialist system of the DPRK. 

The Spokesperson of the DPRK Foreign Ministry describes   the report as  "The "human rights report", a typical product of the U.S.-led hostile forces' anti-DPRK "human rights" racket, is conspiratorial in its contents, stereotyped in its form and illegal in its justification for existence." . The report is simply part of the long running vendetta and conspiracy of the US against the DPRK .

As to Guterres , the DPRK Foreign Ministry characterises him as the   "first spokesman, political instrument and puppet of the U.S. and the West, who has completely abandoned his duty and moral obligation as UN secretary-general having to deem impartiality and fairness vital". This is indeed true . We say Shame on Guterres, the puppet of US and Western imperialism ! . It is truly disgusting that the UN Secretary general is doing the dirty work of US imperialism when he is supposed to be impartial. The UN has been reduced to an unfair and undemocratic organisation.

We support the DPRK Foreign Ministry in its denunciation of the unfairness and double standards of the UN .

Strategic Missile Launching Drill Conducted in Eastern Region of DPRK







Pyongyang, October 4 (KCNA) -- At dawn of October 3, a drill was staged to launch an intermediate-range strategic missile from an eastern region of the DPRK toward the East Sea of Korea.

The drill was conducted as part of the efforts to train the missile soldiers operating the hypersonic strategic weapon system in handling their equipment and evaluate the reliability, efficiency and mobility of the DPRK's war deterrent.

Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and President of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, oversaw the launching drill on the spot.

Among the spectators were Kim Jong Sik, first vice department director of the C.C., WPK, and Jang Chang Ha, general director of the Missile Administration of the DPRK.

Noting that it is a very important measure for ensuring national security and a responsible action of our army to build up the powerful and reliable nuclear deterrent through sustained verification of major components of the war deterrent, improvement of their performance and mastery of the capabilities for their successful operation and to show the counterattack means of our army in constant mobilization posture, Comrade Kim Jong Un said:

"Through today's launching drill, the strategic missile soldiers have fully demonstrated their professional qualifications and counterattack posture, clearly showing that they are very good at operating the major offensive weapon system and they are always available for mobilization. They also added confidence to our deterrent.

I highly appreciate commanding officers and soldiers of the missile unit who participated in the drill.

We must continue our responsible efforts nonstop to constantly and repeatedly make the enemy recognize the reliability and fatality of our strategic offensive means.

This is a form of exercising deterrent.

As always expressed clearly, such activities on our part are definitely aimed at more rapidly developing the country's nuclear war deterrent.

This is indispensable for protecting national security and stability in today's geopolitical environment. There will be no change in such view and line of ours.

We must deter various threats by dint of powerful deterrent and ensure a safer environment for the building and activities of our state."

The missile used in the drill was launched towards the northeast direction and hit the target point at 43°36' 28.04" latitude and 138°00' 47.02" longitude, 1 000 km away on the East Sea of Korea.

Comrade Kim Jong Un expressed expectation and belief that all the missile forces would remain faithful to their missions of defending the sovereignty and security of the Republic in a responsible combat posture. -0-

Kim Yo Jong, Department Director of C.C., WPK, on Strategic Weapon Launching Drill


Pyongyang, October 3 (KCNA) -- At dawn of this morning, a drill of firing a strategic weapon toward the East Sea of Korea was conducted.


An intermediate-range strategic missile was used for the drill.


The head of state personally oversaw the drill of a firepower sub-unit undertaking an exclusive special mission.


The joint chiefs of staff of the ROK, which tracked our drill, announced that the missile flew more than 700 km, while the Japan defence ministry termed the range 680 km.


They are interesting numbers.


We have already witnessed similar announcements four times and, finally, we came to the conclusion that the superiority of the special flight mode applied to the missiles in our possession has been verified in practice.


Of course, we should neither believe the enemy's tracking results nor satisfy ourselves of them, but such figures help take a look at the limitations of the enemy's tracking capability and the special features of our missiles.


Whenever we applied the wave-like trajectory mode to missiles, the enemy failed to track the targets from their first skip points.


Extension of the trajectory at the downward stage gives the numbers quite similar to the numbers of the ranges announced by the enemy.


The enemy always made such a lame excuse that there is a limit to the detection capability because of the curvature of the earth's surface, but in fact this just serves as a proof of our perfect missile capability and the most scientific "evaluation index" confirming the power and reliability of our weapon system.


They should acknowledge the speed of the missile.


And they would be well advised to recollect our announcements that it is capable of changing its flight orbit at a low altitude and AI was introduced into it.


In other words, this means that there is no way to avoid this attack.


Representatives of the Missile Administration reported to the head of state that it is possible to set at least four flight orbit modes according to a purpose and target with the technology recently introduced.


The head of state expressed the belief that any country in the world could not have access to such technology for at least several years. -0
