Withdrawal of U.S. Troops from S. Korea Urgently Demanded

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, May 23 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialist aggression troops in south Korea, the executor of the U.S. separatist policy for domination over Korea, are a stumbling block lying in the way of the movement for national reunification and the progress of the era of independent reunification, says Rodong Sinmun Sunday in a signed article. The article continues:
    The U.S. imperialist aggression troops in south Korea are the biggest leftover of the Cold War era and their withdrawal from south Korea is the urgent demand for the independent reunification.
    It is a stark fact that since the very day the U.S. troops landed in south Korea, they have mercilessly suppressed the anti-U.S. struggle for independence and national reunification and whenever an atmosphere of reconciliation, unity and reunification mounted on the Korean peninsula they challenged it with a threatening war racket.
    The U.S., not pleased with the historic June 15 joint declaration supported and welcomed not only by all the Koreans but by the whole world, let its aggression troops interfere in the exchange and cooperation between the Koreans in the north and the south and has staged madcap war maneuvers targeted against the DPRK, chilling the atmosphere of north-south reconciliation.
    Al these facts clearly indicate that the Korean nation can never achieve the independent reunification of the country as long as the U.S. criminal policy for domination over Korea and its military occupation of south Korea go on.
    The nation-wide struggle for the withdrawal of the U.S. troops alone can put an end to the U.S. imperialists' criminal policy for occupation of south Korea, defend the dignity and sovereignty of the nation and achieve the independent reunification of the country.
    All the Koreans in the north and the south and overseas should turn out as one in the struggle to drive the U.S. imperialist aggression troops out of south Korea and put an end to the U.S. policy for domination over Korea, maintaining the awareness of national independence and the transparent spirit of anti-U.S. struggle.
    Anti-U.S. for independence and national reunification represent an irresistible trend of national history.
