DPRK Condemns U.S. “Golden Dome” Missile Defense System
(MENAFN) The Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) Foreign Ministry condemned the United States’ proposed “Golden Dome” missile defense system, labeling it a clear manifestation of the “America first” doctrine, according to state media on Tuesday.
The system’s development, according to a statement from the DPRK’s Institute for American Studies cited by a news agency, aims at “"threatening the strategic security of the nuclear weapons states regarded by the U.S. with hostility and facilitating the use of the offensive military muscle of the U.S. forces."
The memorandum elaborated that the U.S. seeks comprehensive military dominance by justifying its expansion of space weaponry under the guise of “mainland defense,” accelerating the militarization of outer space. This buildup aims to enable the U.S. to strike enemy nations at will, leveraging its strategic superiority.
Describing the “Golden Dome” system, designed to shield North America from ballistic, cruise, and supersonic missile threats, the document said it is "an outer space nuclear war scenario supporting the U.S. strategy for uni-polar domination with the preemptive establishment of the outer space-based military substructure, not a 'defensive measure' to cope with the 'threat' from someone."
The memo further warned that the U.S. initiative is "the root cause of sparking off global nuclear and space arms race by stimulating the security concerns of nuclear weapons states and turning the outer space into a potential nuclear war field."
It concluded by highlighting that global security is increasingly destabilized due to the U.S.'s open push for space militarization.
