Pyongyang, March 25 (KCNA) -- Timed to coincide with the climax of the U.S.-ROK large-scale joint military exercises Freedom Shield 2025, the U.S.-Japan-ROK naval drill directly aimed at the DPRK was simultaneously staged in the waters off Jeju Island from March 17 to 20. The tripartite naval drill, frantically staged for four days with the involvement of big and small warships of three countries led by the U.S. nuclear carrier Carl Vinson task force, which has incited the war fever in the waters around the Korean peninsula from the beginning of this month, and various kinds of warplanes including the fifth-generation stealth fighter F-35, further aggravated the serious political and military situation in the region. The enemy states did not take the trouble to conceal the fact that the drill was aimed to check the DPRK's nuclear and missile capabilities and its sea defence capability in particular and deprive it of its maritime sovereignty. Moreover, they openly revealed their sinister intention to block even the normal maritime transport of sovereign states in the region by force. Historically, the U.S.-led multinational military drills have served as the source of seriously violating the regional and global security. This being a hard reality, this year's first U.S.-Japan-ROK naval drill, which is the first tripartite joint military exercise after the emergence of the Trump administration, was staged in parallel with the on-going U.S.-ROK large-scale joint military exercises. Such fact is further escalating the danger of the joint military drills. The reality goes to prove that the adventurous hysterics of the U.S. and other hostile forces to restrain the DPRK and other independent countries in the region and dominate the whole Asia-Pacific region is going completely beyond the precedent. As reported, the U.S. and the ROK had desperately staged Freedom Shield, a large-scale war rehearsal, near the southern border of the DPRK from March 10, renewing the worst record in history. They expanded in an all-round way the battlefield domain including ground, sea, air, outer space and cyber, staged field mobile drills at all levels by rapidly increasing them and sharply increased the number of united defense exercises involving the army, police, government agencies, local self-governing bodies and even civilians. Such "new records" upgrading the highest level again totally denied the meaning of "regularity" and "defensive nature" of the drills touted by the enemies. Furthermore, the newly-added variables including the strengthened special warfare drill of provocative nature aimed at "elimination of nukes" in the DPRK, the application of ultra-modern military technology such as generative AI and the involvement of newly-established strategic command and the naval task force command clearly show who are the arch criminals driving the situation in the Korean peninsula and the region even to the outbreak of a war. The hidden intention of the U.S., which simultaneously staged bilateral and multilateral war exercises for aggression in collusion with its satellites at a time when the regional situation was at its worst, can never be construed only as a simple following or repetition of the anti-DPRK policy pursued by the successive U.S. administrations. The present U.S. administration is going to amplify a multi-purpose war gambling in the Korean peninsula and the region while persistently "carrying forward" its hostile policy toward the DPRK and viciously varying it, though it revokes the former administration's policies and administrative orders just like flipping a card. This is the conclusion made by the DPRK, witnessing the present situation. The U.S. and its vassal forces' military provocations to get the upper-hand in strength in the Korean peninsula, the world's biggest hotspot, make the DPRK repeatedly realize what strategic option should be taken by it to tame its foes and bring them to their knees. The more desperately the U.S. resorts to the confrontation with the DPRK, the more the DPRK will accelerate and redouble its efforts and actions to defend its national security and the regional peace, and the enemy states' any provocation and threat will face the overwhelming and decisive counteraction from the DPRK. The U.S. reckless and shameless "doctrine of strength-almighty" will never work in the security domain of the DPRK, though it may work elsewhere.
