U.S. Is Chiefly to Blame for Nuclear Arms Race in 21st Century: KCNA Commentary

Pyongyang, April 28 (KCNA) -- In recent days, U.S. media and military experts asserted that owing to the Obama administration's frantic modernization of nuclear weapons, there is imbalance among nuclear forces of big powers and a fresh Cold War is in the offing. This is the right claim because it reflects the hard fact that the nuclear arms race of the 21st century, a fresh Cold War arousing the deep concern of the world, has already started and the U.S. is chiefly to blame for it. It is now busy developing five types of fresh nuclear warheads and their delivery means with huge financial support and mulling having access to bomber-launched long-range cruise missiles capable of striking targets after overcoming the enemy's missile defence system through long-distance flight. Both Russia and China are channeling greater efforts into bolstering up strategic armed forces, paying attention to the fact that the U.S. is hell-bent on the moves for modernizing nuclear weapons while openly talking about the military containment of the regional powers. The start of the nuclear arms race in the 21st century means the one of ruin of the U.S. Had the U.S. not resorted to the moves for escalating tension in the world such as modernization of nuclear weapons to make the world unipolar, such words as the fresh Cold War and collapse of the American Empire would not have appeared. The U.S. is bound to meet its final doom as it is hell-bent on realizing the anachronistic scenario for dominating the world. -0-
