S. Korean Authorities Urged to Drop Their Cold War-oriented Strategy for confrontation

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, March 13 (KCNA) -- The south Korean authorities on March 4 released the "four-point basic security policy strategy", the keynote of which is to "build up military power strong enough to deter the north" and "play a major role in deterring the north" in the future. Commenting on this, Minju Joson today says their talk about a "major role in deterring the north" means, in essence, that they would play a major role in executing the U.S. policy to stifle the DPRK.
    The news analyst goes on:
    The "four-point basic security policy strategy" means a strategy for Cold War-oriented confrontation with the north in which they adopted the confrontation with the fellow countrymen in the north as a policy.
    Their adoption of this strategy as a policy diametrically runs counter to the June 15 joint declaration. This can never be tolerated as it is an anti-reunification criminal act of negating the June 15 joint declaration and hamstringing its implementation in a bid to bring the inter-Korean relations back to the era of confrontation.
    The inter-Korean confrontation declared by them as a policy under the ridiculous signboard of "deterring the north" is a crime against the nation as it is intended to bring a holocaust of a nuclear war to the nation. This inter-Korean confrontation declared by them as a policy toeing the U.S. line conflicts with the "co-prosperity" touted by them and has nothing to do with "self-reliant national defence".
    With nothing can the south Korean authorities justify the policy of inter-Korean confrontation and the Cold War-oriented strategy for confrontation with the north.
    The south Korean authorities should clarify their stand on whether they stand for independence or dependence on foreign forces and national reconciliation or confrontation.
    We will closely watch the future attitude of the south Korean authorities and take necessary countermeasures.
