Japan Has Nothing to Expect

KCNA

    Pyongyang, February 2 (KCNA) --Recently, the House of Representatives of Japan finally passed the "amendment to the law on foreign exchange" through Diet, angering the Korean people. Kim Kwang Rin, chairman of the State Planning Commission, in an interview with KCNA on February 1, said:
    On January 29, Japan's House of Representatives railroaded through Diet the amendment stipulating that remittance to and trade with the DPRK shall be stopped, when necessary, and Japan shall impose sanctions upon the DPRK single-handedly even without a UN resolution or international agreement for the "peace and security of Japan".
    The move, prompted by the U.S. policy of stifling the DPRK economically and isolating it, is inviting all the Korean people's denunciation.
    Japan's adoption of the bill is driving the DPRK-Japan relations to an unpredictable phase. What is ridiculous is that Japan hopes for the DPRK's concession through the adoption of the bill.
    But Japan has made a big mistake. The DPRK Government and people, who consider the sovereignty of the country as their life and soul, will never be frightened by pressure and sanctions of such a war criminal state as Japan.
    Japan should be held entirely responsible for all the consequences to be entailed by its wanton violation of the DPRK-Japan Pyongyang Declaration.
    Japan has nothing to expect.
    In another interview with KCNA Vice-Minister of Agriculture Hong Myong Ryol said:
    The history of humankind has never known such a brazen-faced and untrustworthy nation as Japan.
    It is only little more than a year ago that Japan's chief executive came to Pyongyang and admitted, in a spirit of humility, facts of history that Japan caused tremendous damage and sufferings to the Korean people through its colonial rule in the past, and expressed deep remorse and heartfelt apology.
    But Japan is now threatening sanctions, far from making an apology. This reveals the craftiness and vulgarity of the Japanese-style ethics.
    The Korean people will never remain a passive onlooker to Japan's acts of infringing upon the sovereignty of the DPRK.
    I would like to remind the Japanese authorities of the fate of a tiger moth.
