Japan Hit for Its Ambition for Territorial Expansion

KCNA

    Pyongyang, January 18 (KCNA) -- Minju Joson today in a signed commentary denounces the Japanese chief executive's claim that Tok Islet is part of Japan's territory as an intolerable encroachment upon the sovereignty of the Korean nation. It goes on:
    Tok Islet has been part of the inviolable territory of Korea throughout its history. This is proved by historical materials, geographical conditions and international law.
    It is quite obvious that the Japanese chief executive is seized by bitter hostility toward Korea, will for confrontation with it and the wild ambition for territorial expansion.
    It is his political creed to revive militarism at an early date and realize Japan's ambition to invade other countries. Japan launched its militarist overseas expansion by invading Korea in the past and it is set to do so in the future, too.
    This is illustrated by the fact that Japan is taking the lead in committing all wrongdoings against the DPRK while pursuing a hostile policy toward it and that the Japan "Self-Defence Forces" are staging a military exercise for landing on Tok Islet.
    Being an inalienable part of the beautiful land of Korea, Tok Islet is a precious wealth to be handed down by the Korean people to posterity. The Korean nation will never tolerate the shameless and brigandish act of Japan to rob it of the islet.
