Spokesman of DPRK FM Dismisses Any Change from DPRK as Ridiculous

KCNA

    Pyongyang, January 9 (KCNA) -- The United States is hyping recent developments in some Middle East countries, the cases orchestrated by itself. It is seized with hallucination that the same would happen on the Korean peninsula and some countries echo this "hope" and "expect" some change. This is nothing but a folly of imbeciles utterly ignorant of the DPRK's independent policy.
    What happened in Middle East countries is the issues that belong to the U.S. and peoples of those countries in all respects, he noted, adding that the DPRK has never been influenced by others and this will not happen in the future, too.
    A spokesman for the DPRK Ministry of Foreign Affairs declared this in an answer given to the question raised by KCNA on Jan. 9 as regards the U.S. attempt to link recent developments in those countries to the DPRK.
    He went on:
    The DPRK has only its principle, the principle of independence and it assesses every development on this principle and acts according to its own judgment and decision. To expect any "change" from the DPRK stand is as foolish as expecting a shower from clear sky.
    Explicitly speaking, the recent developments in those countries only reinforce the DPRK's firm belief in the validity and vitality of its Songun policy.
    It is the historical truth that peace is won and defended only with strength. The DPRK will never abandon its principle it adopted to prevent a war and preserve peace on the Korean peninsula nor step back even an inch from the path of independence chosen by the Korean people. This is the fair and aboveboard and fixed political mode.
