Rumsfeld's S. Korea Trip Assailed

KCNA

    Pyongyang, November 20 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun today dismisses U.S. Defense Secretary Rumsfeld's trip to south Korea as a criminal one of a war servant intended to hurl young south Koreans into Iraq to meet death and put the U.S. scenario to invade the DPRK into practice. The news analyst goes on:
    During his trip he had talks with the minister of the National Defense of south Korea at which he tried hard to wrest answers to a series of questions related to the issues of dispatching south Korean combat troops to Iraq, transferring the U.S. military base in Ryongsan, Seoul entirely at the expense of the south Korean authorities and relocating the U.S. occupation forces according to its new military doctrine for aggression.
    What is more clear from his visit is that the U.S. has not modified its hostile policy to invade the DPRK at all but its attempt at aggression has been pushed forward in real earnest.
    Another point at issue is that the U.S. seeks to force south Koreans to cover all the expenses for the transfer and relocation of the military bases for aggression to plunge Koreans into a war. This betrays the despicable and ferocious nature of the U.S. warhawks.
    The south Koreans should preserve their self-esteem and turn out in a nationwide anti-U.S. struggle to resolutely foil the U.S. high-handed and arbitrary practices intended to infringe upon the dignity and interests of the Korean nation and drive the aggression troops out of south Korea, not allowing it to transfer its bases.
