Japan's Intention to Tighten Nexus with U.S. Flailed

KCNA

    Pyongyang, February 10 (KCNA) -- The Japanese reactionaries' tightened Japan-U.S. alliance is not intended to ensure security but to exercise the right to collective self-defense and conduct military operations overseas under that pretext, create ample legal conditions for militarist overseas aggression and convert Japan into a war state, says Minju Joson Tuesday in a signed commentary. They seek to expand the operational sphere of the Self-Defense Forces on the not far off Korean peninsula where the situation remains tense due to the U.S. hostile policy toward the DPRK and thus realize their vaulting ambition for reinvasion whatever the cost.
    This is clearly proved by the fact that Japan cited military threat from the DPRK and its security concern as a pretext for calling for the tightened Japan-U.S. alliance.
    It was only recently that Japan unilaterally passed the amendment to the law on foreign exchange and foreign trade through the Diet in violation of not only the DPRK-Japan Pyongyang Declaration but international law including international convention on norms of relations among countries. Japan is also acting a shock brigade in implementing the U.S. moves to isolate and stifle the DPRK by blockading it in both territorial air and waters.
    The DPRK can never remain a passive on-looker to Japan which is posing a grave threat to global peace and stability and giving spurs to the moves to realize its ambition to reinvade Korea.
    The army and the people of the DPRK are closely watching Japan as it has designated the DPRK as a target and is set to reinvade it.
    If Japan runs amuck despite the DPRK's repeated warnings, it will take a strong and resolute counter-measure for self-defense.
    Japan should clearly face up to the reality and think and act with reason.
