The DPRK strategic forces test-fired a new-type ICBM on Nov. 18 amid the strict implementation of the top-priority defence-building strategy of the Workers' Party of Korea and the DPRK government on steadily bolstering up the most powerful and absolute nuclear deterrence.

The test-fire was conducted under the intolerable condition that the reckless military confrontational moves of the U.S. and other hostile forces persistently driving the military and political situation in the Korean peninsula to the red line have gone beyond the limit and hypocritical and brigandish sophisms have been justified even in the UN arena to brand the right of a sovereign state to self-defence as provocation in every way.

Kim Jong Un, General Secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and President of the State Affairs of the DPRK, guided the test-fire on the spot.

A report of the General Staff of the Korean People's Army on its military operations corresponding to the Vigilant Storm, the U.S.-south Korea combined air drill, was issued.

In turn, Mr. Miroshnichenko assured his interlocutor that all plans and agreements reached between the relevant representatives of the LPR and the DPRK remain in force. He especially emphasized the importance of the diplomatic recognition of the LPR by Korea and once again expressed gratitude to the government of the Republic and the Solidarity Group for their contribution to the implementation of international justice.
