U.S.-Planned "Evacuation Exercise" Denounced

KCNA

    Pyongyang, February 13 (KCNA) -- It was recently reported by a U.S. newspaper that an exercise of evacuating American civilians including families of the U.S. troops in south Korea would be staged for 3 days from Feb. 19. The exercise will include "a roll-call, checkup of various kinds of documents, a drill how to escape and evacuate, transport of some persons to Japan via a U.S. air base in Osan", etc.
    In this regard Minju Joson today in a signed commentary dismisses the exercise as a "preparatory exercise" to be staged under the simulated conditions of a new war in Korea.
    It continues:
    The "evacuation exercise" the U.S. is going to stage while putting spurs to the preparations for a war of aggression against the DPRK suggests that the war is imminent on the Korean peninsula.
    Another point one should not overlook as regards the exercise to be commanded by the headquarters of the U.S. troops stationed in south Korea is that the U.S. seeks to ignite a war in Korea and achieve its aim by letting Koreans in the north and the south fight each other without any American casualties.
    But the U.S. imperialists should not miscalculate.
    The DPRK's strike at the aggressors is merciless and nobody can escape it.
    If the U.S. imperialists provoke the second war in Korea, they will get nothing but corpse and death. They should bear this in mind.
