Double-Dealing Tactics Can Never Work on DPRK

KCNA

    Pyongyang, January 30 (KCNA) -- The U.S. administration is reported to have contended recently that the nuclear issue between the U.S. and the DPRK should be solved peacefully and diplomatically. While advocating a diplomatic and peaceful solution to the nuclear issue, the U.S., however, let loose a string of provocative remarks that the "nuclear crisis in north Korea is an issue that might be referred to the UN Security Council and it might prompt the SC to discuss the possibility of sanctions against it" and "Washington hoped that north Korea would solve the crisis over its nuclear program diplomatically."
    In this regard Rodong Sinmun today in a signed commentary says it is nothing but a base ruse to twist the nature of the issue that the U.S. is asserting the DPRK-U.S. nuclear issue remains unsolved due to the DPRK's fault.
    The nuclear issue between them is a direct product of the U.S. hostile policy toward the DPRK. It deteriorated as the United States threatened the DPRK, a non-nuclear state, with nukes and attempted to mount a preemptive nuclear attack on it.
    However, the U.S. has delayed and obstructed the solution to the issue, insisting on its assertion that "the DPRK should abandon its nuclear program first".
    If the U.S. truly stands for a peaceful solution to the nuclear issue, it should not insist on its unreasonable assertion but accept the DPRK-proposed package solution based on the principle of simultaneous actions.
    Whether the U.S. accepts the DPRK proposal or not is a touchstone showing whether it hopes for the peaceful solution to the nuclear issue or not.
    The United States should drop its double-dealing tactics and take an honest approach.
