Japanese Reactionaries' Terrorism against Chongryon under Fire

KCNA

    Pyongyang, August 6 (KCNA) -- A spokesman for the Central Committee of the Union of Agricultural Workers of Korea in a statement on August 5 urged the Japanese reactionaries to stop at once all forms of provocative acts of threatening the lives and properties of Koreans in Japan, ferret out criminals and punish them severely, while taking proper measures to root out terrorism against the General Association of Korean Residents in Japan (Chongryon) as early as possible. The gravity of the recent incidents lies in the fact that the anti-Chongryon moves of the Japanese reactionaries have reached such a dangerous phase as shooting and explosive-throwing, going beyond the phase of threat and blackmail, he noted, and went on:
    The Japanese authorities are entirely to blame for the recent terrorism against Chongryon and Koreans as they have protected and encouraged the right-wing reactionaries in their crimes.
    It is the strong resolution and will of the Korean people to force Japan to pay a very high price not only for its past crimes but for the criminal acts perpetrated against Chongryon and Koreans in Japan up to this date from the end of the war.
    If the Japanese reactionaries persist in their hostile acts against the DPRK and Chongryon, they will be held wholly responsible for all the ensuing consequences.
