UN Urged to Take Follow-up Measure for Replacing KAA with Peace Agreement

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, April 5 (KCNA) -- The United Nations should no longer remain a passive onlooker to the issue of dissolving the "UN Command" but take an earlier follow-up measure to implement the resolution of the 30th Session of the UN General Assembly on dissolving and command replacing the Korean Armistice Agreement with a peace agreement, urged the DPRK delegate, addressing a meeting of the special committee on strengthening the UN Charter and Its Role on March 30. Today the principle of respecting sovereignty and ensuring its equality is being wantonly trampled upon in international relations and world peace and security are exposed to a grave threat owing to the strong-arm policy and unilateralism, he said, noting that the present international situation calls for further enhancing the role of the UN to live up to its purpose and principle.
    He went on:
    Rejecting the strong-arm policy and unilateralism is a prerequisite to meeting this demand. If the UN General Assembly has the authority to examine the resolutions of the UN Security Council which have direct effects on international peace and security and give relevant recommendations, it will be conducive to doing away with the strong-arm policy and unilateralism.
    The "UN Command" was framed up 50 odd years ago by the U.S. strong-arm and arbitrary practices. This was a crude violation of the UN Charter. The "UN Command" is, in fact, the U.S. Forces Command, being an illegal and anachronistic body, to all intents and purposes, and it is no more than a tool of aggression for attaining the U.S. strategic aim.
