U.S. Decision to Apply Sanctions against DPRK under Fire

KCNA

    Pyongyang, September 18 (KCNA) -- The Bush administration recently decided to impose sanctions against the DPRK and some other countries on charges of failure to actively combat such modern crimes as flesh traffic. Rodong Sinmun today in a signed commentary dismisses this as a ridiculous farce.
    The commentary says:
    Human traffic is not allowed on any account in the DPRK
    institutionally and legally and such thing does not exist, in fact, at all, as it is a man-centred socialist society. It is the height of sarcasm for the U.S. to talk about modern crimes in the DPRK. It is none other than the U.S. which is fraught with modern crimes. Over 34 million cases of crimes of all kinds are reported every year in the U.S. The reactionary U.S. ruling quarters, however, are lukewarm in combating them.
    Nevertheless, the U.S. is obtrusive enough to seek sanctions against the DPRK, crying over the lack of struggle against modern crimes there.
    The DPRK's might is growing stronger as the days go by. On the contrary, the U.S. is running downhill to decay. The farce of applying sanctions against the DPRK reflects the U.S. reactionary rulers' uneasiness and nervousness over this. It is a foolish attempt to put the brake on the building of a great prosperous powerful socialist nation in the DPRK.
    The U.S. imperialists are going to frighten the army and the people of the DPRK and isolate and stifle it by sanctions. This is, however, a ridiculous dream. They will get nothing in that farce.
    The U.S. should clearly understand this and stop running amuck.
