SEOUL, Oct. 4 (Xinhua) -- The top leader of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) said the country would use all offensive forces, including nuclear weapons, if enemies attempt to use armed forces encroaching upon the DPRK sovereignty, the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) reported on Friday.
Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the DPRK, made the remarks while inspecting a training base of the special operation units earlier this week.
Kim stressed that the enemies' threatening rhetoric, action, trick and attempt will not take away the DPRK's nuclear weapons and the country "has irreversibly secured the absolute strength as a nuclear power and the system and function for using it," according to the KCNA report.
"To pray for a good luck of survival in a military conflict with the nuclear weapons state would be a foolish thing," and "if such situation comes, the permanent existence of Seoul and the Republic of Korea would be impossible," the DPRK leader was quoted by the KCNA as saying. ■
