The regime in North Korea adopted an official decision to develop further its nuclear potential, a day after it stated it is ready for war with South Korea.

According to the position declared by Pyongyang, the country will never discuss a limiting of its nuclear program in return for international aid.

The decision was adopted Sunday at a sitting of the central committee of the Korean Worker's Party under the chairmanship of leader Kim Jong-un.

North Korea has further decided to adopt legislative acts in support of the decision.

"Our nuclear capacitiesi must be expanded and fortified both quantitatively and qualitatively until global de-nuclearization has been reached," stated the North Korean government.

The declaration also states the country's resolve to pursue nuclear technologies for peaceful application.
