North Korea 'confident' of nuclear stand-off victory

North Korea today boasted that it would win its nuclear stand-off with the United States because of its “ultra hard-line” military stance.

“In the North Korea-US nuclear stand-off, which the world is watching with sweating hands, we were always ultra hard-line and that ultra hard-line response is the response of the mighty army-first policy,” the North’s state-run Central Radio said.
