S. Korean authorities hit for taking issue with anti-war peace education
KCNA
Pyongyang, May 4 (KCNA) -- A spokesman for the central committee of the General Federation of Trade Unions of Korea in a statement on May 3 denounced the South Korean authorities for kicking up a racket while terming the anti-war peace education of Jongyojo (the National Teachers Union) anti-U.S. education.
He said:
The racket is an act against the nation and history which shows the pro-U.S. flunkeyist nature of the present ruling forces.
It is aimed to dampen the ever-mounting anti-U.S. spirit of the South Korean people.
Jongyojo is conducting anti-war peace education with a view to imparting to the rising generations the aggressive and brigandish nature of the U.S., the chieftain of national division and disturber of peace in the Korean Peninsula and the rest of the world. The education is very natural as it reflects the aspiration of the South Korean people for the dignity and independence of the nation and the requirements of the times.
Nevertheless, the South Korean authorities are undisguisedly attempting to suppress Jongyojo while calling into question its anti-war peace education under the pretext that it is contrary to "alliance with the U.S."
The South Korean authorities should see the trend of the times, drop the pro-U.S. flunkeyist attitude, take the road of independence and give up at once their attempt to crack down on Jongyojo.
