Unreasonable involvement in U.S. anti-DPRK campaign assailed

KCNA

    Pyongyang, April 2 (KCNA) -- Some forces of the international community are joining the U.S. in its moves to increase its pressure upon the DPRK over its nuclear issue. Claiming that North Korea is the next target of the U.S. attack when its Iraqi war is over, they described the just measures taken by the DPRK as regards the nuclear issue of the Korean Peninsula as a violation of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty and urged it to accept inspection.
    In this regard Rodong Sinmun today in a signed commentary says:
    The DPRK pulled out of the nuclear non-proliferation treaty as a legitimate self-defensive measure under the situation where the supreme interests of the state were seriously threatened.
    It was a very just measure for the DPRK which values its sovereignty as its life and soul to react to the U.S. brigandish demands with the toughest stand.
    The U.S. is now insisting on the multilateral talks and pressurizing upon the DPRK to accept inspection, doggedly opposing its constructive proposal for the conclusion of a non-aggression treaty between the DPRK and the U.S.
    Those assertions of the dishonest forces of the international community are little short of giving a shot in the arm of the U.S. keen to unleash a nuclear war on the Korean Peninsula.
    Those with a cool-headed and lucid view on the developments should carefully approach the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula and exercise their influence on the U.S. to make a political decision to opt for the DPRK-U.S. direct negotiations and the conclusion of the non-aggression treaty as early as possible.
