U.S. Diplomat's Mean Malarkey under Fire
Korean Central News Agency of DPRK
Pyongyang, June 23 (KCNA) -- U.S. Ambassador to Japan Baker at a recent meeting in Tokyo talked rubbish about the "nuclear ambition" of the DPRK. He asserted that the time has come for north Korea to show reaction, etc.
Rodong Sinmun Wednesday in a signed commentary dismisses this as a mean malarkey that can be made only by a man bereft of an elementary qualification and ability as a diplomat.
Referring to the fact that the U.S. has persistently urged the DPRK, a victim, to scrap its nuclear program first, the commentary goes on:
The U.S. has escalated its moves to stifle the DPRK as evidenced by its increased diplomatic and military pressure and economic sanctions and blockade behind the deceptive scene of "dialogue". This eloquently proves that the "negotiated peaceful solution to the nuclear issue" much touted by the U.S. is nothing but a trick to fool the DPRK and gain time and that the U.S. seeks only a sinister aim to totally disarm the DPRK and swallow it up with ease.
As far as patience and the issue of reaction are concerned, it is the DPRK that wants to hear from the U.S. about those things. Given the present situation, it is high time that the U.S. showed a positive response.
No positive results can be expected from the third round of the six-party talks if the U.S. again raises its old brigandish demand at the talks that will start today.
Even if the U.S. wastes time, insisting on its assertion that the DPRK must scrap its nuclear program first, it will do the DPRK nothing bad. That will only offer it more time to increase its physical deterrent force.
Explicitly speaking, the DPRK will steadily strengthen its retaliatory measures unless the U.S. immediately stops demanding the DPRK accept CVID.
That is not bad for the DPRK.
