DPRK to retaliate for U.S. attack - military attache in Moscow

MOSCOW. April 21 (Interfax) - North Korea's armed forces are ready to respond to a United States attack, with a nuclear strike to a nuclear strike, a Pyongyang representative said.

"Today the U.S. is engaged in fomenting a nuclear war on the Korean peninsula. Should the U.S. commit a reckless provocation, the Korean armed forces will respond to the provocation and will be responding with an all-out war to an all-out war and a nuclear strike to a nuclear war," Kim Yong Jing, military attache at North Korea's Embassy in Moscow, said.

The science and technology in the defense sector of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea have reached a new level, he said. "We are making supermodern weapons of our own model: high-precision, light, unmanned and intellectual," the attache said.

"We have a more potent weapon than a hydrogen bomb: unanimity and unity of the whole army," he said.
