KCNA urges U.S. to admit its responsibility for nuclear crisis
KCNA
Pyongyang, May 24 (KCNA) -- The United States is recently spreading the rumor that the DPRK unilaterally derailed the north-south joint declaration on denuclearization.
This is nothing but a foolish attempt of the U.S. to flee from its responsibility for the crisis caused by the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula.
KCNA issued a detailed report on May 12 to cite historical data scientifically explaining why the nuclear issue surfaced on the Korean Peninsula and who is to blame for derailing the process of denuclearizing it.
As we have already clarified, it was the United States that spawned the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula and consistently obstructed the process of denuclearizing it, the process that had started thanks to the initiative and sincere efforts of the DPRK to settle the nuclear issue, and disrupted the process, in the long run.
Nevertheless, the U.S. is seeking to bedevil the relations between the north and the south and fish in troubled waters for a political purpose, shifting the blame for reducing the inter-Korean joint declaration on denuclearization to a dead document onto the DPRK. This only brings into bolder relief the shameless and crafty nature of the U.S.
Clear is the DPRK stand toward the nuclear issue on the peninsula and its settlement.
If the U.S. officially drops its political, military and economic hostile policy toward the DPRK intended to destroy its state and system and approaches negotiations with it from a fair and equal stand, it will take the U.S. touted "security concern" into full account.
The U.S. is, however, persistently insisting only on "North Korea's dismantling of its nuclear weapons program before dialogue", while talking about "all options" or "further steps," paying lip-service to the "peaceful settlement" of the nuclear issue. This can never go down with the DPRK which regards independence as its life and soul as it is an insult and violation of international justice.
The lesson drawn from the U.S. Iraqi war proved that it is necessary to boost the physical deterrent force to stand up against aggression and war.
The U.S. styling itself the world's only superpower is describing the DPRK's self-defensive stand and steps as "threat" and "blackmail". This is a far-fetched assertion and a sinister trick which can convince no one.
The conception of absolute denuclearization on this planet is quite meaningless unless the U.S., the nuclear weapon state, proves its anti-nuclear policy by dismantling its nuclear weapons and abandoning its nuclear threat. This is the stark reality today created by the U.S. nuclear blackmail policy.
The U.S. is well advised to humbly admit its responsibility for nuclear proliferation, advance a correct policy quite understandable to all the sovereign states before approaching the debate on the nuclear issue. It should drop its policy to stifle the DPRK with nukes as its first practical step.
