U.S. blockade scheme against DPRK under fire

Korean Central News Agency

Release Date: 7/25/2003

Pyongyang, July 23 (KCNA) -- The United States recently brought together riff-raffs to discuss ways of completely blockading the DPRK on the sea and in the air. Rodong Sinmun today in a signed commentary raps at the U.S. moves to blockade the DPRK as an illegal criminal act that has no ground in view of international law.

Noting that there is neither resolution nor international convention which allows laying an "international encircling ring" around the DPRK, the commentary goes on:

If international law and regulations on the international relations which constitute lawful principles and standards of international affairs are scrapped by a specific state in the 21st century, the consequences will be serious.

If international law and regulations are reduced to dead letters of no effect which one may or may not abide by, the international community will be turned into a theatre of rowdysm ruled by the jungle law only and the words of justice and impartiality will disappear from the international scene.

This is what the U.S. wants.

The army and the people of the DPRK will never change the way they have chosen, afraid of the U.S. blockade moves.

The U.S. would be well advised to immediately stop its unlawful blockade operation to isolate and stifle the DPRK.
