DPRK Delegate Calls for Maintaining Fairness

KCNA

    Pyongyang, October 19 (KCNA) -- The UN Security Council should maintain fairness with regard to the issue of the Korean peninsula, particularly the nuclear issue, the solution of which becomes the pressing issue in ensuring world peace and security. A DPRK delegate said this when discussing agenda item 11 the "Report of the UN Security Council" at the Plenary Meeting of the 58th UN General Assembly on Oct. 13.
    He went on:
    The nuclear issue on the Korean peninsula is an outcome of the U.S. hostile policy toward the DPRK. A solution to the nuclear issue entirely depends on whether the U.S. makes a policy switchover or not.
    The nuclear issue is not an issue which allows the Security Council's intervention. In this regard, we hold that the council should, on the principle of justice and impartiality, draw attention to the fact that the U.S. hostile policy toward the DPRK and the threat of a preemptive nuclear attack have incurred the nuclear issue which threatens the peace and security of the Korean peninsula.
    The council should also pay due attention to the current situation of the "UN Command" in south Korea.
    The command forged by the United States has nothing to do with the UN nor is it making any contribution to its activities.
    The "UN forces" in south Korea are U.S. troops by nature.
    The DPRK urges the council to take appropriate measures to urge the U.S. to return the unilaterally abused UN flag and helmets to the UN Secretariat as soon as possible.
