KCNA urges un to indict U.S. first

Pyongyang, April 5 (KCNA) -- The UN Security Council was reported to have agreed to convene on April 9 a meeting to discuss the nuclear crisis in North Korea.
The agreement came after the U.S. and its followers asserted recently that the UNSC should handle the North Korean issue.
This is entirely attributable to the political and diplomatic pressure put by the U.S. upon UNSC member nations.
As VOA reported, 4 weeks of U.S. hectic lobbying activities resulted in pressurizing UNSC member nations to agree on holding the meeting. This fact cannot but lash the DPRK into fury at the U.S. desperate efforts to internationalize the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula and increase global pressure upon the DPRK in a bid to bring it to its knees.
By nature, the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula is not one to be discussed at the UN in view of its origin and the circumstances of its outbreak.
Moreover, the UN seems to have lost its mandate because of the U.S. invasion of Iraq.
It is by no means fortuitous that the world public comments that the UNSC, the backbone of the UN, has revealed its functional inability to ensure security as regards the Iraqi war and the UNSC is dead.
It is ridiculous for the UNSC to talk about handling the DPRK's nuclear issue.
If it is ready to perform its function it should call to task the U.S. gangster-like acts of ditching the DPRK-U.S. Agreed Framework and defying international law and the UN before handling the DPRK's nuclear issue.
The DPRK clarifies once again that the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula is an inevitable product of the U.S. policy to stifle the DPRK.
It is an undeniable fact that the issue was spawned and has been aggravated by the U.S. and reached an extreme phase due to its moves.
The U.S. has posed a constant nuclear threat to the DPRK, a non-nuclear state, after deploying huge nuclear weapons in South Korea. It even staged a mock exercise after working out a plan to mount a preemptive attack on the DPRK's nuclear facilities for a peaceful purpose, thus sparking a nuclear crisis on the Korean Peninsula.
It is again the U.S. which singled out the DPRK as part of an "axis of evil" and a target of its preemptive nuclear attack in violation of the basic spirit of the NPT and the AF after the emergence of the bush administration.
Therefore, the UN is duty-bound to indict the U.S. for sparking the nuclear crisis on the Korean Peninsula and punish it by relevant international law.
There is no other alternative way of settling the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula than holding direct talks between the DPRK and the U.S. and concluding a legally binding non-aggression treaty.
When the DPRK-U.S. non-aggression treaty is concluded neither side would feel threat from the other, the hostile and belligerent relations between the two sides would be eased or terminated and a legal and institutional mechanism whose mission is to ensure durable peace on the Korean Peninsula would be provided.
Only then the sensitive nuclear issue can be settled smoothly between the two sides and the U.S. cleared of its "security worries."
The U.S. will have to pay a very high price for working hard to internationalize the nuclear issue at any cost defying the DPRK's just demand.
The DPRK will not recognize but consider invalid any "resolution" or other document to be adopted by the UNSC at the meeting, yielding to the U.S. unilateral and self-justified assertions.
