PYONGYANG - The joint military exercise staged by the United States and South Korea was a test nuclear war of aggression against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK), according to a report published Tuesday by the official news agency KCNA.
"Looking back on history, the US has only pursued a policy to bring down the system in the DPRK, not seeking any solution to the issue based on the respect for sovereignty," it said.
The report noted that the current US administration was little different from the preceding administration in pursuing a hostile policy toward the DPRK and didn't want to see things going well in the country.
The US should take substantial steps to put an end to the state of war and hostile relations with the DPRK, the report said.
The US and South Korea on March 8 started their annual joint military exercise, which was scheduled to end Thursday.
