EU-Sponsored Anti-DPRK Resolution Dismissed

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, April 29 (KCNA) -- An EU-sponsored anti-DPRK "resolution" was railroaded through the recent 60th meeting of the UN Commission on Human Rights held in Geneva. The European Union had already unilaterally suspended the favorably developing dialogue and cooperation with the DPRK in the field of human rights and sought all of a sudden the passage of an anti-DPRK "resolution" on human rights at a meeting last year. This time, too it spearheaded the railroading of another resolution full of lies and fabrications through the meeting.
    As the DPRK has clarified more than once, it is the consistent policy of its government to guarantee all its citizens their rights in a responsible manner.
    They enjoy genuine freedom and rights under the man-centered Korean-style socialist system whereby the whole country has become a large family and the leader, the Party and the masses are single-heartedly united.
    Nevertheless, the EU got the "resolution" passed in utter disregard of this actual human rights performance in the DPRK. This only goes to prove that the EU has become undisguised in conspiring with the U.S. in its hostile policy towards the DPRK aimed to impair the image of the DPRK and isolate and stifle it.
    It is preposterous for the EU to deliberately say about someone's "human rights situation," behaving as if it were an international "judge of human rights."
    In fact, the U.S. should be forced to sit in the dock before any other countries when international and regional organizations discuss the issue of human rights.
    The lives and inviolable rights of the people are constantly infringed upon in the U.S. society where firearms flood and various kinds of crimes including murder are rampant. It is the U.S. where racial discrimination and human rights abuses are the worst.
    The U.S. not only is beset with the most serious human rights issues at home but has turned the international arena into an abattoir of man slaughter, a graveyard of human rights.
    The Iraqi war started by the U.S. last year in disregard of the UN and the international community is turning Iraq into a sea of blood as defenseless peaceable civilians are indiscriminately killed.
    The U.S. killed at least 10,000 civilians and children and contaminated the Iraqi land with radioactive fallout by using about 1,700 tons of depleted uranium shields and over 10,000 cluster bombs.
    The U.S. crimes against humanity are not confined to Iraq but are ceaselessly reported in Afghanistan, Kosovo and other parts of the world.
    The pressing issue in the field of human rights is rights to life and existence.
    The U.S. is killing people in cold blood and trampling down upon their right to existence, under the signboard of "protection of human rights." It is strange enough for the EU to turn aside from this genocide when claiming that it discusses the issue of human rights.
    If the EU considers as its "human rights standards" the jungle law that any crime of the strong should be regarded as a good deed and any good deed of the weak as a crime, then where is justice?
    If the EU is truly concerned about human rights, it should call the U.S. inhumane killing to task and hold it accountable for it.
